Re: What's the status of MinGW port.

Hi,
 I cloned the git repo from 'git://git2.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git'. I had an earlier msysGIT with build environment. I just got into the msys (bash) environment and ran a 'gmake'. It built fine on Windows XP.
 I thank everyone involved in making git work on windoze. It really makes it a lot more easier to push git as a serious dVCS in the corporate world with development hapenning on different platforms :-)
 Once I iron out git-p4, hoping to say "Git the hell out of here ... p4" soon.

This is good to know.
