I have a few things I experienced with the merged cygwin stuff. Sorry I
haven't investigated it further, but there should be enough for a few
fixes.

When I ...

  user@machine /usr/local/dev/git/git
  $ make prefix=/usr/local install
  install -d -m755 /usr/local/bin
  install git-apply.exe [...]
  sh ./cmd-rename.sh /usr/local/bin
  ln: creating symbolic link `/usr/local/bin/git-http-pull.exe' to `git-http-fetch.exe': File exists
  make: *** [install] Error 1

Can be fixed by the patch below. I don't know if it would be cleaner to
pass cmd-rename.sh "$X" as a second argument from the Makefile.

 	then
 		ln -s "$new" "$d/$old" || exit


Some other obscurities ...

  user@machine /usr/local/dev/git/git
  $ git-log
  fatal: Not a git repository

  user@machine /usr/local/dev/git/git
  $ GIT_DIR=.git git-log | wc -l
  26094

and I cannot rebuild the index file with git-reset. First time I run it
it creates the index.lock file and errors out when writing. The second
time it errors out because the lock file was not removed in the first
case.

  user@machine /usr/local/dev/git/git
  $ GIT_DIR=.git git-reset
  fatal: unable to write new index file
