Oh, don't worry: when you start a MinGW-w64/MSYS2 shell or a Cygwin shell for that matter, you get a dedicated path variable. In fact much cleaner than the one a DOS-box starts with, as that accumulates a lot of junk :(. I had to expand it to get access to git - it resides in "c:\program files\git" and that is not part of the initial path.

Meanwhile, leaving out "git" has allowed CMake to continue without much ado - CMake encounters a wxWidgets directory within the git installation, but without the header files and then chokes, it seems. For now I run the tests without git.

Regards,

Arjen
