Subject: Re: Are the patches used to build git on cygwin available in a git repo somewhere?
Date: Wed, 31 Mar 2010 18:55:58 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <o2p2cfc40321003310055i4b26d46l29ac6113be9eb980@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

What I was looking for was a git repo that contains a branch with the
patches that the cygwin folks mutate the official git release with.
Such a repo would be quite useful because people could, in theory, use
these to produce their own cygwin git builds at arbitrary commits
instead of having to wait for cygwin to catch up.
Admittedly, it is not a big deal to build such a branch using the
patch from the cygwin package source, but I was just wondering whether
there was a well-known repo that contained the patches already.
