I mean, each Windows developer clones the main repository to their respective *local* machine (using whatever tool they want, be it plain msysgit or cygwin port of Git or Tortoise Git or whatever other front-end), then they work on the code, then eventually pushe their changes to the main repository (or to some other repository or whatnot, depending on the adopted workflow). In my opinion, trying to access a Git repository over a CIFS mount is casting a great pain onto one's neck--Git on Windows has many rough edges so it's better to stick to workflows proven to work. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
