The git-annex Windows port is not ready for prime time. But it does exist

|
|
|
now! --[[Joey]]

* Does not work with Cygwin's build of git (that git does not consistently
|
2013-05-14 19:14:11 +00:00
|
|
|
support use of DOS style paths, which git-annex uses on Windows).
|

|
|

Must use Msysgit.

* rsync special remotes with a rsyncurl of a local directory are known
|
|
|
|
|
let r = if inr1 then r1 else r2
|
|
|
|
|
buggy. (git-annex tells rsync C:foo and it thinks it means a remote host
|
|
|
|
|
named C...)

|
|
|
* Ssh connection caching does not work on Windows, so `git annex get`
|
|
|
|
|
has to connect twice to the remote system over ssh per file, which
|
|
|
|
|
is much slower than on systems supporting connection caching.
|

|
|
* `git annex assistant` has not been tested, is probably quite incomplete
|
|
|
|
|
and/or buggy.
|

* Doesn't daemonize. Maybe use

|
|
|
<http://hackage.haskell.org/package/Win32-services>
|
|
|
|
|
or perhaps easier,

This should work to install the deps, using libs from cygwin
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cabal install libxml-sax --extra-lib-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\lib --extra-include-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\usr\\include\\libxml2
|
|
|
|
|
cabal install gnuidn --extra-lib-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\lib --extra-include-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\usr\\include\\
|
|
|
|
|
cabal install gnutls --extra-lib-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\lib --extra-include-dirs=C:\\cygwin\\usr\\include\\
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
While the 1st line works, the rest fail oddly. Looks like lack of
|
|
|
|
|
quoting when cabal runs c2hs and gcc, as "Haskell Platform" is
|
|
|
|
|
taken as 2 filenames. Needs investigation why this happens here
|
|
|
|
|
and not other times..
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Also needs gsasl, which is not in cygwin.
