Why is that? Hi Chris, That file is specific to the git for windows project, not git itself. While you may be able to find somebody on the git@vger mailinglist who knows the answer, git for windows also has a separate mailinglist at https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/git-for-windows and a chat room at https://gitter.im/git-for-windows/git -- these may be of more assistance in this case. -- Dennis Kaarsemaker http://www.kaarsemaker.net
