QGit's README (
https://github.com/tibirna/qgit/blob/master/README.adoc ) directs me
to this mailing list, so forgive me if this is the wrong place.

Is there a fully built version of QGit 2.8 for Windows?

The latest QGit for Windows I can find is 2.3, from 2008 (
https://sourceforge.net/projects/qgit/ ). That version encounters an
error every time I load a repo (deprecated command "git
repo-config..."), and I see this has been updated between then and
now.

I did attempt to clone and build, using the instructions in the repo,
but after several hours of trying, the binary I produced will not
load, with several error dialogs, which appear in differing order each
time I try to run qgit.exe (and the procedure entry point doesn't
always appear):

"The code execution cannot proceed because libGLESv2.dll was not
found. Reinstalling..."
libGLEv2.dll is present on the system in \Windows\SysWOW64

"...VCRUNTIME140_APP.dll..."
I do not find this on the system, in the Visual Studio files, or
available online (I do find VCRUNTIME140.dll).

"...MSVCP140_APP.dll..."
Same as VCRUNTIME140_APP.dll

"The procedure entry point
?qt_metacall@QProcess@@UEAAHW4Call@QMetaObject@@HPEAPEAX@Z could not
be located int the dynamic link library
C:\Projects\qgit-qgit-2.8\bin\qgit.exe."

Is there a pre-built 2.8 for Windows?

Thanks,
Rick

Not sure if this is the same thing or not but I found this:

https://github.com/tibirna/qgit

It looks to be v2.6. Maybe this might be of use?

So, does QGit have a test build for Windows, perhaps run as a
regression test to verify the build each time a change is made to the
source?
