Did you go through https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/wiki/How-to-Contribute ?
I just followed https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/wiki/How-to-Contribute#build-and-run. I just tried again with all the instruction steps and ran into the issues 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 described on https://github.com/joquijada/windows-node-js-node-gyp. I followed the fixes described there and ended up with a completely different error (than 2.4).
/usr/bin/bash: /cygdrive/c/msys64/usr/bin/cmd: No such file or directory
gyp: Call to 'cmd /c "cd shared && GetCommitHash.bat"' returned exit status 127
while in deps/winpty/src/winpty.gyp. while loading dependencies of binding.gyp w
hile trying to load binding.gyp
I don't know why it looks for a cmd
there. It's probably, because my sytem is messed up, because I have so much stuff installed (Cygwin, MinGW, MSYS, GIT Bash).
I'm not sure how I can help you. I do know that following that guide on a fresh windows box should work fine. Please search around StackOverflow and our issues to find a fix.
Steps to Reproduce:
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/vscode.git
cd vscode
yarn install
Output:
With this it just hangs. I left it running for half an hour and it didn't finish. While it had been working before, I could notice the sounds of my drives and my CPU cooler, but once it got to this state it appeared drives and CPU went to sleep.
Tested in the GIT Bash and also the default Windows CMD. GIT Bash displays much less information.
