Subject: Re: Can git be tweaked to work cross-platform, on FAT32?

Message-ID: <906f26060612170633h50e3e974h3b84f1829e546278@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I just tried to use git writing to my FAT32 formatted usb stick.

On windows XP, I compiled git with and without NO_D_TYPE_IN_DIRENT,
but after the
following actions I always got the error "fatal: Unable to write new
index file" or
"fatal: unable to create '.git/index': File exists":

mkdir git-test-repo
cd git-test-repo
git-init-db
echo iii>test
git add test
git commit -m "test msg"
echo ooo>test1
git add test1 ***error***

converting the stick to NTFS I have no problems.

any hint ???
