Cygwin 1.7, Win 2008 and rebase
I've just installed cygwin 1.7 for use under Winn 2008 - the latest version of 1.7 setup released today. I've read the threads on rebase issues with Vista but so far none of the suggestions help with my git-svn issue. After installation I ran through: ash /usr/bin/rebaseall /usr/bin/peflagsall Rebooted a number of times but whenever I use run git svn: git svn --version I receive: 183 [main] perl 3588 C:\cygwin\bin\perl.exe: *** fatal error - unable to remap C:\cygwin\bin\cygsvn_subr-1-0.dll to same address as parent(0x6FB3) != 0x6FE6 46 [main] perl 3488 fork: child 3588 - died waiting for dll loading, errno11 Any suggestions or have I may be missed some steps with the new version of rebase?

Re: Cygwin 1.7 ACLs
Corinna Vinschen wrote: Cygwin is a POSIX environment. The ACLs are set according to POSIX rules, not according to Win32 rules. Thanks I'm not criticising Cywin's ACL behaviour just looking for guidance on anyone who has used 1.7 with existing Windows applications. In my case I wish to use the cygwin toolset but operate within the context of the Windows OS/Tools which clearly rely on Windows based ACLs and trying to find a reasonable workable approach to the problem. I'll read the mount table section you supplied and the other sections on cygwin's ACL behaviour.

Cygwin 1.7 ACLs
I'm trying cygwin 1.7 for the first time. I have an existing subversion area created with a windows version of subversion. I used patch to apply a diff to an individual file. Before the patch the file permissions were inheriting from it's parent - which included the Users group, Administrators, my own local id and SYSTEM. After the patch had been written the perms changed to my local id, None and Everyone - none of these were inherited. However this caused an issue, the file itself was a CSS file and the Users group perms were granting the IIS anon user the ability to read the static file. So the first thing that failed was that IIS could no longer read the file and subtle formatting issues occured on my dev web site. I've had other issues as well where some edtitors can no longer write to files after trying to reapply Users (using windows explorer) permissions. In this case the Users permission were applied but my local id lost all of it's permissions because they were prevously inherited. When applying the Users permission I had to make sure that the correct perms were also re-checked for my local id. This is on a Windows XP machine at the moment. Incidently although the first situation above was using cygwin tools on an area created by Windows tools I have also used git and git-svn to create a new source area with cygwin and this also demonstrated some subtle issues with ACLs. I'm just wondering how other people cope with these issues?

Emacs and Windows Vista
I've just tried to install and run cygwin emacs 21.2.13 under Windows Vista. I installed the x11 binaries and emacs lisp src along with the distribution. I start the xwin server and run emacs and it just sits in the background spinning the CPU. I've tried emacs -q, emacs-nox -q to no avail, same result. Is anyone else successfully running cygwin emacs on Vista? I'm currently running NTEmacs but hitting certain trouble spots when combining with cygwin (I've never got symlinks to work and certain modes - fail when you try using them with the cygwin based interpreters - e.g. pythonwith python.el/python-mode.el and ropemacs for example). So I thought I'd try the native cygwin implementation and see if the experience was any cleaner. -- Darren -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
