Hi,
I need to set up a non-interactive MSYS2 install, i.e. one that does not need
any user interaction. What is the recommended procedure for this:
* extracting msys2-base-i686-20141003.tar.xz to the location desired and
then executing msys2_shell.bat (and maybe autorebase.bat) once to do the
initial user specific setup
* calling msys2-i686-20141003.exe with some command-line switch that puts
it in non-interactive mode
While I think I know how to proceed when following the first option, I'd prefer
the second if possible, i.e. if there is some command line switch to support
installation non-interactively. But the help provided by
msys2-i686-20141003.exe is rather terse (see below). Is there some more
elaborate documentation available?
Thanks,
Chris
