Ok, 1) msys.bat still kills the previous window msys.bat needs to change from :startsh start sh --login -i exit to just :startsh sh --login -i (start opens a new CMD window, and exit kills the current one) 2) If $HOME is set to the normal home directory of the user (which I have, but I doubt it's common) C:\Documents and Settings\ then you'll have problems with spaces in path, so the make install actually fails. So, next time you start msys.bat, it will try to do the installation step again. I don't think we have to care about that right now. The current setup work fine for now. I'll play around a bit with it, and we'll see. 3) When "Setting up git" the second time, it feels like the whole thing is hanging; have let it run for ~5min now without anything happening. Not sure what's going on here. It looks like git.exe was ran with any options, but that should not consume 100% CPU.. Hmm 4) When using the install, I get marius@STORM /git $ git init warning: templates not found C:/msysGit/share/git-core/templates/ Initialized empty Git repository in .git/ Probably due to the "Setting up git" step not completing. -- .marius
