Just wanted to share that with at least wine 1.7.23 I can install
msysgit using the netboot method, clone and build git ok. I had to do
this to make gcc works actually, but it's probably no big deal
$ mkdir -p ~/.wine/drive_c/usr/libexec/gcc/mingw32 -p
$ cp ~/.wine/drive_c/msysgit/mingw/bin/as.exe
~/.wine/drive_c/usr/libexec/gcc/mingw32/
$ cp ~/.wine/drive_c/msysgit/mingw/bin/ld.exe
~/.wine/drive_c/usr/libexec/gcc/mingw32/
This may open a door for many people like me, who are interested in
Windows support, but don't own a Windows license (and probably don't
want to dual boot anyway). Of course tricky stuff would require real
Windows, but this would help with most "standard" windows stuff.

Are you compiling git.git or msysgit.git?
And how about the test suite?

We (Wine) are interested in bug reports for git tests failing on Wine
that succeed on Windows/Linux. Performance issues compared to Windows
are highly desired too.
thanks

Awesome, thank you for the offer!
I haven't tried this in a long time, mainly because at some stage Wine
required a separate console from my terminal to run command-line programs.
And it seemed to me as if in particular process-spawning and heavy-duty
file system operations were the bottleneck.
Hopefully I will find some time soon to perform those tests again.
Ciao,
Johannes
