Re: Cygwin 1.7.1 breaks git on netapp shared drives

I'm having the GIT problem with cygwin and network shares mentioned here:

http://www.cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2010-01/msg01151.html

However, I have my drive mounted noacl and it still fails. At least I assume I do. When I type mount it says:
Z: on /cygdrive/z type ntfs (binary,exec,noacl,user).
And I'm trying to push git content to /cygdrive/z/myrepository
How do I solve this?


It took me about a week after my original post to correctly mount with noacls.

See:
http://www.cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#mount-table

and add a line like the following to your /etc/fstab:
//server/share/subdir /srv/subdir smbfs binary,noacl 0 0

The mount command often shows incorrect mount information after making changes with mount or /etc/fstab entries.

I had not initially tried the // syntax because FAQ 4.2 recommended not using the "obsolete //c notation" in your PATH or startup files.
