I don't know if it can help you, but I use mingw64 with bash shell from msys and I don't have this problem. MinGW version should use a bit more more from the os_win code since it's not emulating a fully posix environement like cygwin. I stop building fossil for cygwin long time ago and I found that cygwin version of fossil was a lot slower (with big repo) and I had problem when using the same checkout from cygwin and non-cygwin binary. -- Martin G. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
