Unfortunately, I am really wasted by this weekend's efforts to bring msysgit.git along... could you be so kind as to cut&paste the relevant section in a reply to me, so I do not have to search for myself? I would not normally ask for such a favour; it is relatively easy to go on a search with Git, but I do have only 8 hours of sleep in the last 60 hours under my saddle... Ciao, Dscho
