Details
- Which terminal/shell are you running Git from? e.g Bash/CMD/PowerShell/other
Bash
- What commands did you run to trigger this issue? If you can provide a
Minimal, Complete, and Verifiable example
this will help us understand the issue.
mingw-get install mingw32-make
- What did you expect to occur after running these commands?
I wanted mingw32-make to become available
- What actually happened instead?
mingw32-make is not available.
I suspect it installed on "C:\Program Files" and the space made the install process not working.
=> I want to be able to install Git for Windows in the directory of my choosing (one without any space, like C:\git): the installer do not provide me this option.
=> Alternatively, there should be a solution in Git for Windows to "upgrade" the UNIX environment to a more complete one (have a mingw-get or equivalent by default...).
- If the problem was occurring with a specific repository, can you provide the
URL to that repository to help us with testing?
No
