If you're running git --daemon because of its efficiency, have you considered the fact that [smart-http][] is almost as efficient? That should work in any http server, a plethora of which exist for Windoze. Also, file system cloning is very efficient so if you're trying to share a repository you could in theory share over the file system using filesystem permissions to allow for cloning. Just food for thought. [smart-http]: http://progit.org/2010/03/04/smart-http.html --=20 In Christ, Timmy V. http://burningones.com/ http://five.sentenc.es/ - Spend less time on e-mail
