I am unsure whether this is the right group for asking this question= =20 and if it is not please excuse me and/or redirect me to a more suitable= one. We are looking into using git for our source control needs but ran=20 into some problems. One of these is that it seems that with the latest git release the=20 git-gui script changed and started hardcoding some absolute paths in it= =20 during its build (git-gui/Makefile replaces @@GITGUI_SCRIPT@@ with a=20 hardcoded path). However, this causes the prebuilt Cygwin package to no= t=20 work in case Cygwin is not installed in its default location at=20 C:\Cygwin (e.g. D:\Cygwin or C:\Program Files\Cygwin). Everything works fine if you manually edit the git-gui script and=20 change the hard-coded path defined there. Is there something I'm missing here? E.g. is there any way for the=20 Cygwin installation to set the correct path here? Or is the user=20 supposed to modify this by hand on every installation? If this is so,=20 then what other such files are expected to be modified? Many thanks. Best regards, Jurko Gospodneti=E6
