Sorry it took me a while to try out all the cases. On Wed, Jan 22, 2014 at 2:42 PM, Chris O'Bryan wrote:

It doesn't work at all - I just says 'Cloning into 'linux-git-1.8.5.2'...' and then returns to the prompt in < 2 seconds. Nothing was cloned and no errors. But what was really odd, is that when I went to copy 0.9.8 to 1.0.0, I found two versions of cygcrypto-1.0.0.dll. One called just that and another called cygcrypto-1.0.0.dll.new. I'm quite sure I have never messed around with those files. So I moved the older (timestamp) 1.0.0.dll to .old and copied the .new version over as and re-tried the clone cygcrypto-1.0.0.dll. It failed in the usual fashion (pack corrupted etc.) as reported earlier. Wanting to eliminate any cygcrypto dll issues, I moved the existing dlls out of the way and re-installed libopenssl. The dll that got installed was identical in size and timestamp to .new but had different md5sums! I've included all md5sums in case one of you can verify which one you have. But the clone failed again. All output below.
