There were none. Anyway, because Git makes it _really_ hard to run in-place, I gave in. I run Git from $HOME/bin now. > > http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/22764/focus=22778 > > It seems I fixed this right away? That is not what I remember. I remember that I had the next issue right away. I remember that there were problems with ActiveState Perl+Cygwin. And I remember that the Git.xs was not merged in the end. Anyway, this whole discussion is moot, methinks. Let's concentrate back on the real issue: merging the two as-of-now incompatible Perl modules. It really would be nice to have one pony with one saddle in the end, so that the use of Lea's GSoC project is not limited to gitweb with enabled caching. Ciao, Dscho
