Earlier, I would have been more than ready to suggest using msysGit. But as I became more than just frustrated with "users" (after all, Git users are supposed to be developers), I refrain more and more from doing so.

Having said that, you _might_ get lucky trying msysGit, even from Cygwin. Just do not complain to me when it does not work.

Ciao, Dscho

P.S.: if it does not work, and you fix a few issues, but have problems with others, I might be more inclined to help you, just because you did fix some issues.
