cygwin - Uninstalling GIT on windows -


i have had various msysgit installs on windows vista laptop on past year, using "msysgit-fullinstall", "msysgit-netinstall" , "preview installers. also, installed / used different versions along way. had git binary installed part of cygwin package. screwed along way (actually, not edit .gitconfig anymore), , decided go nuclear , remove git allow me have fresh install (which can love bit more :) ).

i tried below steps, still build fails error "old version git-* commands still remain in bindir" - when attempting use net installer. - removed git through add / remove programs in control - removed git files usr/local/bin - , every other "git" file find - removed cygwin enviorment - current %home% directory empty

if chose install via "preview" or "full" installers, works, can can use git env / commands - except again cannot edit .gitconfig file, , error message:

"error: not lock config file .git/config: no such file or directory"

in summary, have botched git windows env, how can clean such can reinstall git!

thanks.

there 2 steps have manually "uninstall" git on windows:

  1. you have remove paths bin folders path environment variable
  2. remove folder git/cygwin installed.

after can install cygwin-less msysgit here: http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/downloads/list
