Adding Windows support on upstream git-repo

Open dpursehouse opened this issue 7 years ago • 4 comments

Hello,

I'm one of the maintainers of git-repo, and I was just made aware of this fork today.

We currently have a series of patches under review to add support for Windows.

Is this something that you would be interested in helping to review/test, potentially with the aim to contribute some of the work in this fork back upstream?

Thanks.

What is the status of this?

@fire the upstream changes that I mentioned in this issue have all been merged, but I can't say for sure whether or not Windows is now 100% supported.

@rpaquay do you have any more fixes planned?

No, there are no more fixes planned, except maybe support for SYMBOLIC_LINK_FLAG_ALLOW_UNPRIVILEGED_CREATE flag when creating symbolic link, but that is a nice to have more than a requirement.
