As a long-time Windows user, I am entitled to say it - and I don't try to be mean - These are the downsides of using Windows, Uwe. Sorry. :) I have an install log for Windows which says this: git config --system core.longpaths true git config --global core.safecrlf false git config --global core.autocrlf false I'll add it to the help files so that other people may benefit from it, maybe.
