(The name "msysgit" *never* referred to "Git for Windows", but only to the development environment used to generate Git for Windows 1.x). Please. Thank you. And yes, the roadmap is pretty clear from the GitHub tickets, e.g. this one: https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/285 Please note that I held off this week for three reasons: 1) I was submitting patches to the MSys2 and Cygwin upstream first, 2) I was busy fixing e.g. that bug where home directories containing non-ASCII characters were handled incorrectly (and generally trying to keep the tickets in https://github.com/git-for-windows/git under something similar to control), and 3) what with Peff's and Stefan's huge patch series, I did not want to overload Junio. Please note that I already started submitting patches, though: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/277542 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/277731 Ciao, Dscho
