Andrey/Christoph,

This may be a little late, but...

Maybe this gives a hint on how to fix it?

I (and others in my group) typically use the root c:/cygwin and avoid this whole issue.

Hi,

I see the same on my windows build. I verified that 8.3 filenames are enabled.

I took a little closer look. In my PATH env in Cygwin I have: 
...:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Git/cmd:...

The git path is resolved via UTIL_LOOKUP_PROGS(GIT, git) in basic_tools.m4. 
UTIL_LOOKUP_PROGS, defined in util_paths.m4 must somehow not be capable to 
correctly resolve the path with spaces. The output in configure is:

checking for git...  Files/Git/cmd/git

Maybe this gives a hint on how to fix it? I guess I can configure my path to 
use the 8.3 notation. But maybe UTIL_LOOKUP_PROGS could be improved?

Cheers
Christoph

Hello.
I noticed strange warnings produced by 'make test' recently on my
Win11 installation. For example:

$ make test TEST="tier1"
Building target 'test' in configuration 'windows-x86_64-server-release'
/usr/bin/bash: Files/Git/cmd/git: No such file or directory
/usr/bin/bash: Files/Git/cmd/git: No such file or directory Test
selection 'tier1', will run:


Also found this in
build\windows-x86_64-server-release\configure-support\config.log

configure:29274: checking for git
configure:29502: result:  Files/Git/cmd/git

Seems like space in git path is incorrectly handled.
Is it a known issue or is it a limitation of autoconf?
Spaces in paths is always tricky and is best avoided. That being said, we try to
make autoconf robust for tools in directories with space in them.

Are you running in Cygwin?

Can you verify that your C: drive can use short paths. See
https://openjdk.java.net/groups/build/doc/building.html#spaces-in-path
