Does using msysgit lead to repository corruption?
- by randomusing
While stumbling through the chromium code documentation, I came across this post:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/UsingGit#Windows
If you are using msysgit, you are
asking for trouble. Using both msysgit
(including TortoiseGit) and cygwin's
version of git is a path to lead to
repository corruption so it's safer to
stick with the cygwin's version. So if
you still have msysgit in your PATH,
you are on your own.
Does this really happen? What causes the corruption?
