git-forest on msysgit

[John Dlugosz]

I downloaded git-forest, and when I run it I get:

Can't locate loadable object for module Encode in @INC (@INC contains:
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/msys /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5
/site_perl/5.8.8/msys /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/msys/encoding.pm
line 5

The line 5 in encoding.pm reads "use Encode;" and there is an Encode.pm
on the path, and in Encode.pm it uses XSLoader.  However, in the XS
subdirectory in the same directory as Encode.pm, I see only 2 files and
neither of them has to do with encoding.  So I'm guessing I'm missing a
file.

I wonder if I can just copy it from somewhere, like someone's Linux
build?

Not answering the question, but did ou know that you get mostly the
same with git log --graph (without installing anthing)?

Hi,

Note: this is pretty much obviously the wrong mailing list for 
msysGit-related issues.

You can try recompiling git-svn.  Maybe I forgot to commit a file.

How do you expect a Linux-specific binary object to be usable on Windows?

Hth,

This is the list where I get friendly and useful answers as well as
fruitful discussions, and I've seen Windows and MSYSget in particular
mentioned many times when reviewing the threads.

I've not delved into the source code yet, but some day...

Because it's the Perl inside MSys/Cigwin.  Isn't the POSIX layer like
Wine in reverse?
