Hello, dear Git developer.

This is a minimal MSYS environment to work on Git.

Your build failed... Please fix it, and give feedback on the Git list.

Welcome to msysGit

Run 'git help git' to display the help index. Run 'git help ' to display help for specific commands. Run '/share/msysGit/add-shortcut.tcl' to add a shortcut to msysGit.

If you follow the very first Download link on https://msysgit.github.io/, you are installing Git for Windows.

If you really want to develop Git for Windows (in which case you downloaded the correct package), you should call

cd /git/
make V=1

to find out more.

It works now. Thanks Dscho. I should install git tool but not msysgit
