From ad95c5cf97830718ca8aa65fd390196036322c6c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Schindelin Date: Tue, 21 Mar 2017 13:18:38 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 30/N] Handle ORIGINAL_PATH just like PATH MSYS2 recently introduced that hack where the ORIGINAL_PATH variable is set to the original PATH value in /etc/profile, unless previously set. In Git for Windows' default mode, that ORIGINAL_PATH value is the used to define the PATH variable explicitly. So far so good. The problem: when calling from inside an MSYS2 process (such as Bash) a MINGW executable (such as git.exe) that then calls another MSYS2 executable (such as bash.exe), that latter call will try to re-convert ORIGINAL_PATH after the previous call converted ORIGINAL_PATH from POSIX to Windows paths. And this conversion may very well fail, e.g. when the path list contains mixed semicolons and colons. So let's just *force* the MSYS2 runtime to handle ORIGINAL_PATH in the same way as the PATH variable (which conversion works, as we know).
