The cygwin git worked as expected. :-) I don't have previous experience with git. What is the git command to get the base packed? Or, is there a page that explains the git packages somewhere? Thanks - and again, I was pleasantly surpised by how well the process went. It was a big help.

I found that I have best results with autoctrl=false (see git-config) using msysGit with the base package. Otherwise I have often unexplained file changes that I can't cancel with git-checkout. -Fred -- Frédéric Bouvier http://my.fotolia.com/frfoto/ Photo gallery - album photo http://www.youtube.com/user/fgfred64 Videos ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sell apps to millions through the Intel(R) Atom(Tm) Developer Program Be part of this innovative community and reach millions of netbook users worldwide.
