I might, but that would requiere a lot of effort to investigate the changes in mingw, and I'm not sure if there's enough interest on this. After fixing all the issues so that we can cross-compile, I would like to see a real effort to move away from shell and perl scripts, so that we not only could run the important commands, but properly test Git without bash, otherwise I feel Windows will always be a second class citizen. > P.S. besides CC/LD, I also had to define AR and fix `windres` executable name > in `config.mak.uname`. That's why we should have a CROSS_COMPILE variable which is standard in other projects. This is what the Linux kernel has: AS = $(CROSS_COMPILE)as LD = $(CROSS_COMPILE)ld CC = $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc AR = $(CROSS_COMPILE)ar NM = $(CROSS_COMPILE)nm STRIP = $(CROSS_COMPILE)strip OBJCOPY = $(CROSS_COMPILE)objcopy OBJDUMP = $(CROSS_COMPILE)objdump I had patches for this, but I gave them up =/ -- Felipe Contreras -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
