Useable with MSysGit? #25
Comments
Yes, it works if you copy the file |
git-flow only needs a running "sh" environment. I don't know MSysGit personally, but if it provides some kind of (POSIX-compliant) shell script interpreter, git-flow should work. |
I managed to get git flow working with msysGit, but needed some hacks on my setup. First, I copied all the git* files to libexec\git-core. Then replaced shFlags like snaewe mentioned, but <install_dir> for me was also libexec\git-core. Git flow complained about getopt. I got it from cygwin (package utils_linux*) and copied the getopt.exe to the bin folder. Also had to copy 4 more files from cygwin to the bin folder (cyggcc_s-1.dll, cygiconv-2.dll, cygintl-8.dll and cygwin1.dll). Like I said in the beginning, this is a hacky solution but it did work for me. |
This works for me too. thanks snaewe and psampaio nvie: maybe you should add this to the FAQ ('for msysgit users:') |
Thanks for the tip, I've added a FAQ entry for it. |
Maybe I'm just a noob, but it took me FOREVER to get the msysgit instructions figured out. It may just be because I don't know much at all about how bash works. msysgit has a bin folder in the root install directory already, so it wasn't necessary to create a usr/local/bin folder. |
I only used the Cygwin downloader without installing and the files were in different places. Base was /%packages_dir%/%mirror_name%/release/. /cygwin/ has cygwin1.dll /gettext/ has cygintl-8.dll /libiconv/ has cygiconv-2.dll /gcc4/libgcc1/ has cyggcc_s-1.dll /util-linux/ has getopt.exe |
I know this has been closed a while but this is how I got it to work in Windows:

I had have the same issue with git-flow 0.4.2-pre and windows 7 profesional 32bit. It seem's like direname doesn't work right. Not a fine solution, but it works. It would be great when could set GITFLOW_DIR from outside also. regards |
@slowjack2k - the issue you're seeing is covered here: #161 |
this works for me @slowjack2k thanks |
I know that git flow is useable on Windows with Cygwin, but is there a reasonable way to use it in MSysGit? I've gotten very fond of Git Bash...
