Just to clarify, it == git-mswin.el > Should we install it? No. it == contrib/emacs/*, I believe. I wouldn't mind contrib/emacs being bundled for the advertising, but I think any Emacs users would find the official contribs by themselves anyway. Besides, there seems to be other git for Emacs users modes floating around. Let's wait until we can take off "preview" from the installers. ;-) Actually I think the vi stuff is good enough for now. git rebase -i even works from cmd.exe because of the default GIT_EDITOR=vim, great! And an Emacs user like me only has to do something like GIT_EDITOR=c:/app/emacs/bin/gnuclient.exe to get his fix. (backslashes don't work currently) > What exactly would be needed? Since GNU Emacs doesn't have a package management system, installation is a manual affair. I wouldn't expect msysgit installer to do installation for me. If bundling just for advertising, I think a copy of vc-git.el, git.el, and git-blame.el placed in %Program Files%\Git\contrib\emacs would be enough. Also git-mswin.el, of course.
