Windows is not currently supported. I don't know what's going on in your error message, but I cannot test on Windows and I need to have confidence that encoding is done correctly before I can merge a pull request.
Okay, thank you very much. It would be nice to read "Windows not supported" on the start page of your project, would have saved me half a day ;-)
Thank you anyways for you fast replies!
drauch, your error is because git doesn't know what is fat filter. You need something like this: $ git config --global filter.fat.clean git-fat filter-clean $ git config --global filter.fat.smudge git-fat filter-smudge
This add config options which you can check using: git config --list (...) filter.fat.clean=git-fat filter-clean %f filter.fat.smudge=git-fat filter-smudge %f
Are you sure you have git-fat in system PATH?
@omikronsc: The configuration is already set with git fat init, and yes, git-fat is in the system PATH.
@drauch: This doesn't make sense. Did you add git-fat to PATH globally? There are subprocesses called without altering global PATH. Can you invoke 'git-fat' (WITH '-')?
Could this be related to rsync
not being available on Windows?
Well I made git-fat working on Windows. See my branch https://github.com/omikronsc/git-fat .
I branched out from https://github.com/PersonifyInc/git-fat. They ported git-fat to Python 3. But they focused on Amazon storage and forget some functions for rsync, which I added in my branch.
Then I setup environment for git-fat to work. I used git Windows installer to have bash-like command line and added rsync from another MinGW installation. Files needed to rsync work under git-bash: rsync.exe msys-iconv-2.dll msys-intl-8.dll msys-popt-0.dll
Files are located in
To sum up. You need git msys installer, another MinGW with rsync and my branch of git-fat.
Just FYI: the cyaninc/git-fat repo added support for Windows. All dll/exe dependencies are shipped (awk, rsync, ssh), so it works out of the box. Currently you can install it only from sources (by running the win32/setup_wheel.bat script), as the wheel package has not yet been uploaded to PyPI.
After solving my Python version problem, git fat push / git fat pull executes smoothly. However, when trying to stage my first binary file, I get the following error:
Looks like something is still misconfigured? I executed git fat init, configured .gitfat and .gitattributes correctly. What else could I have done wrong?
Is git-fat at the moment Windows ready?
