There are two additional changes that are of interest for the msysgit effort: - The test scripts no longer accept --no-symlinks becaust test-lib.sh auto-detects whether the file system supports symbolic links. - The devel branch no longer patches out libiconv, which is now required in the shipped configuration (the one from http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/libiconv.htm, which requires the OLD_ICONV setting in the Makefile). -- Hannes ``` ## Dmitry Kakurin, 2007-08-16 10:08 Subject: Re: [ANNOUNCE] GIT MinGW port is now at v1.5.3-rc4 Message-ID: <6020F7321DB14F7B9288F0782A316803@ntdev.corp.microsoft.com> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/6020F7321DB14F7B9288F0782A316803%40ntdev.corp.microsoft.com In-Reply-To: <46C41C49.A92AEF07@eudaptics.com> ``` ----- Original Message ----- From: "Johannes Sixt" > I've just pushed an update of the MinGW port to: > clone: git://repo.or.cz/git/mingw.git We need to make sure that we don't duplicate our efforts.

I've basically hiding under a stone when I was away. So, no, I didn't see it until yesterday ;) > Also I think it's now time to merge two repos. > Two Johanneses (corresponding repo owners on the to: line), please coordinate with each other. Sure! First thing I need to know is which branch I should keep an eye on. master? -- Hannes ``` ## Johannes Schindelin, 2007-08-16 18:25 Subject: Re: [ANNOUNCE] GIT MinGW port is now at v1.5.3-rc4 Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/Pine.LNX.4.64.0708161922200.20400%40racer.site In-Reply-To: <46C4332A.AF464A67@eudaptics.com> ``` Hi, On Thu, 16 Aug 2007, Johannes Sixt wrote: > Dmitry Kakurin wrote: > > > Also I think it's now time to merge two repos.

AFAIAC 'master' is supposed to be for end-user consumption, and 'devel' is where all the action is (sort of our 'next' branch). BTW I just added you (Hannes) to the pushers list. Ciao, Dscho ```
