Hey Tony, Sorry I wasnt answering for longer: Now I runned the installer and unpacked portablegit in the dist-extras directory...the new folder portablegit contained a post-install.bat though running it will tell me:
$ ./post-install.bat mkdir: cannot change permissions of ‘/dev/shm’: Permission denied mkdir: cannot change permissions of ‘/dev/mqueue’: Permission denied ‘C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\drivers\\etc\\hosts’ -> ‘/etc/hosts’ ‘C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\drivers\\etc\\protocol’ -> ‘/etc/protocols’ ‘C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\drivers\\etc\\services’ -> ‘/etc/services’ ‘C:\\WINDOWS\\System32\\drivers\\etc\\networks’ -> ‘/etc/networks’ 1 [main] git (5504) C:\cygwin64\bin\git.exe: *** fatal error - cygheap base mismatch detected - 0x18031D400/0x180320400. This problem is probably due to using incompatible versions of the cygwin DLL. Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility and delete all but the most recent version. The most recent version *should* reside in x:\cygwin\bin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have installed the cygwin distribution. Rebooting is also suggested if you are unable to find another cygwin DLL. Die Batchdatei kann nicht gefunden werden. Not quite sure what the problem ist. Following the instructions to search for other cygwin1.dll didnt help I did install a full version of MingW at some point is that any problem? Am Dienstag, 3.
