I am not trying to emulate Linux, but rather get a replacement version control system for CVS, whose cygwin port works fine as I need, i.e., crlf automatically replacing lf in text files, even if the remote repository is Linux-based and only has lf in text files. My work has for years been in an environment where text files must be in their native format regardless of choice of repository and regardless of the software engineer's choice of desktop. Given that the cygwin CVS works fine, I wasn't looking for and wasn't aware that there was a Mingw port of git, I was assuming that the cygwin git should fit the bill. Thanks for the hint, sorry to have bothered you.
