I invoked 'make' from the Bash that was installed by msysgit. That 'make' hang. The same command runs just fine from the MSYS Bash I us= e for configuring and building packages. That's a fact. I think I kno= w the reasons, but if you want to disagree and live dangerously, that's fine by me. > It would be quick enough to run some common git commands from MSYS = shell > to see if it works: clone, pull, status, log... I already tried, see above. > BTW, there is MSYS2 [1], that comes with lots of packages (managed = with > pacman, an awesome package manager) including git. I built Emacs fr= om > MSYS2 a few days ago and it worked (just a small compile issue rela= ted > to MinGW-w64.) MSYSGit is quite faster than MSYS2 git, though. Thanks, I know about MSYS2. My current MSYS environment is well tune= d and satisfies me, so I feel no need to switch.
