Doesn't both MSYS and Cygwin map Windows drive letters to UNIX paths? E.g. D: is at /d in MSYS. So if you use UNIX paths it's possible to create a relative path between two arbitrary locations. Anyway, if git master is currently broken and there's no easy and obvious fix available we should revert the original patch. Push an updated version at a later time when all issues have been resolved. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
