Upon program invocation, MSYS converts environment variables containing path-like values from Unix-style to DOS-style under the assumption that the program being invoked understands only DOS-style pathnames. For instance, the Unix-style path /msysgit is translated to c:/msysgit. For test t5560, the path being requested from git-http-backend is specified via environment variable PATH_INFO as a URL path of the form /repo.git/foobar, which git-http-backend combines with GIT_PROJECT_ROOT to determine the actual physical path within the repository. This is a case where MSYS's conversion of the path-like value of PATH_INFO causes harm, for two reasons. First, the resulting converted path, when joined with GIT_PROJECT_ROOT is bogus (for instance, "C:/msysgit/git/t/trash-zzz/C:/msysgit/repo.git/HEAD"). Second, the converted PATH_INFO path is rejected by git-http-backend as an 'alias' due to validation failure on the part of daemon_avoid_alias(). Unfortunately, the standard work-around of doubling the leading slash (i.e. //repo.git/foobar) to suppress MSYS path conversion works only for command-line arguments, but not for environment variables. Consequently, side step the problem by instead passing git-http-backend an already-constructed full path rather than components GIT_PROJECT_ROOT and PATH_INFO.

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// GIT - the stupid content tracker //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "git" can mean anything, depending on your mood. - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant. - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang. - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room. - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals. Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License. It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano. Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions. See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-commandname.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with "man gittutorial" or "git help tutorial", and the documentation of each command with "man git-commandname" or "git help commandname". CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt ("man gitcvs-migration" or "git help cvs-migration" if git is installed). Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools. The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites. The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
