I tried to install 1.6.1.2 on 1.7.1, but it didn't work. The clone
complained that the index-pack program was missing. I did the usual
./configure && make && make install
so I'm not sure what else to try.
I copied git-index-pack.exe from the build directory to
/usr/local/libexec/git-core/ and now 1.6.1.2 behaves the same as the
cygwin-built git:
la...@hobart256 ~
$ git clone git:/repo/git/acl acl
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/layer/acl/.git/
remote: Counting objects: 9205, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (3300/3300), done.
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
fatal: early EOFs: 32% (2946/9205)
fatal: index-pack failed
la...@hobart256 ~
So, it would seem that something in cygwin, not git, has made this
fail, since git 1.6.1.2 is working for me with cygwin 1.5.25.
