I hope my opening of many PRs lately don't come off as burdensome, please do tell me if my contributions are excessive. I'm opening this one because I noticed the second paragraph in Notes mentioning an interest in Git, and I've succeeded in coming up with a somewhat simple solution (Git only depends on zlib and curl).
This adds a relatively fully functional Git to w64devkit. I've taken quite a few decisions during the production of this patch, and I'm willing to update any of them as preferred.
Decisions
http[s]://
origins, which I assumed was an important feature.less.exe
as the pager andvi.bat
as the editor. If none are specified at build time, Git would look for "less", find no match (less is "less.exe"), and fallback on simply printing everything, and for the editor, look for "vi", find no match for similar reasons and fail.make
andmake install
are done in one command, because both require having the same arguments, so doing both separately would duplicate all the arguments.zip
doesn't seem to support symlinks very well, even with--symlinks
, so I used thealias.c
program to emulate those symlinks.
