First, you need to install MSYS2 (use the 64bit installer, msys2-x86_64-*.exe):
- https://sourceforge.net/p/msys2/wiki/MSYS2%20installation/
+ http://www.msys2.org
+ https://github.com/msys2/msys2/wiki/MSYS2-installation
Then, perform the MSYS2 update procedure as per the documentation above.
- $ update-core
- (If one of the packages is updated here, you MUST restart MSYS2)
+ $ pacman -Syu # If needed, close MSYS2, run it again from Start menu.
$ pacman -Su
-Now close the shell and start an "MSYS2 MinGW32" shell (do NOT use the
-"MSYS2 Shell", and do NOT use the "MSYS2 MinGW64" shell). All other
-steps will always have to be performed in an "MSYS2 MinGW32" shell.
+Now close the shell and start an "MSYS2 MinGW 32-bit" shell (do NOT use the
+"MSYS2 MSYS" shell, and do NOT use the "MSYS2 MinGW 64-bit" shell). All other
+steps will always have to be performed in an "MSYS2 MinGW 32-bit" shell.
Install the MSYS2 git package there:
