I noticed today that my notes about compiling Git on cygwin to work with FAT32 (export NO_MMAP=1) on the Wiki page WindowsInstall were removed.

Than I'm asking how you'd setup repos to work on some linux/windows machines, transferring data only with an USB disk.

* current repos scenario *
r1.linux -> on fat32
r2.windows -> on fat32
* proposed (better???) repos scenario *
r1.lin -> on ext3 (partition 1)
r1.lin -> on fat32 (partition 2) mirrored with rsync from linux
r2.win -> on fat32 (partition 2) mirrored with cwrsync from windows
r2.win -> on ntfs (partition 3)
bye, and thanks for the wonderful tool git is!
