Use the normal Windows notation here (e.g., C:\Users\USERNAME).
If you really want to use it, here are the steps you have to perform:ġ) Select the \usr\bin-folder as git.exe folder.Ģ) Configure the HOME environment variable in Windows, so that MSYS2 and TortoiseGit are using the same home directory and global git-config.
The TortoiseGit developers only use Git for Windows. The default in Cygwin Git is true.Ĥ) Go to TortoiseGit the section called “Advanced Settings” and set CygwinHack to true in order to activate Cygwin workarounds.Īs noted above: There is no official support for MSYS2 Git in TortoiseGit (do not enable this for the "Git for Windows" package!). By default, TortoiseGit uses the Windows home directory which is normally located under c:\Users and Cygwin uses its own home directories which are located under \home.ģ) Configure AutoCrLf, this is necessary as TortoiseGit and Cygwin Git have different defaults.

Cygwin GitĪs noted above: There is no official support for Cygwin Git in TortoiseGit (do not enable this for the "Git for Windows" package!). Often you can see if you need this when you start git.exe in \mingw\bin-folder and you get a message box saying that a DLL is missing. entered in the Extra PATH textbox) in order to execute git.exe. This is especially needed if you installed the developer version of msysGit ("Full installer (self-contained) if you want to hack on Git" with the filename msysGit-fullinstall-*.exe), in this case it is necessary that the \mingw\bin-folder is on the path (i.e. If your git installation needs an extra entry in the PATH environment variable, you can enter it here and it will get added to the PATH environment variable automatically when TortoiseGit starts. Then start TortoiseGit settings, click on Check now and observe the debug messages. In order to debug problems you can open TortoiseGit advanced settings and set DebugOutputString to "true" ( the section called “Advanced Settings”).
