I tried build-testing the latest version of git, and the tests reported
this error:

I have this strange feeling that you do not have "merge"
installed on your cygwin box.  It is part of "rcs".

When you see a test failure, it sometimes useful to try running:

    $ cd t
    $ sh ./t6021-*.sh -i -v

manually.

```

Thanks, that was it. Another dependency to add to git-core :)
