I just wanted to add, I have been using Adam's version for the last couple of days without any issues. (The x86 variant.) The only problem I had was when I went to install it using Steven's instructions: > Also for anyone interested in testing this is the install, pretty simple > > wget tastycake.net/~adam/cygwin/x86/git/git-1.8.5.2-1.tar.xz > tar -x -C / -f git-1.8.5.2-1.tar.xz When I went to untar it, I got errors trying to hardlink git.exe and git-upload-archive.exe to git-receive-pack.exe in the /usr/bin directory. (I had previously uninstalled git using setup-x86.exe, so as to install it "clean".) I ended up running Windows cmd.exe and using mklink /H to make the links.
