Message202794
However, coming up with a way to detect that msys is in use, and publishing
that information for use by applications like Mercurial, or creating a
catalogue of which Windows APIs still don't accept forward slashes as path
separators could help the issue progress.
There's just no magic fix we can apply at the interpreter or standard
library level to make the problem go away - it's *precisely* the kind of
problem that exists in the space between the "POSIX shell on Windows"
provided by msys and the full POSIX API provided by Cygwin. |
