Where is git installed with cygwin? - cygwin

I am going through the EGit user guide and it says I should point out the system wide configuration by telling Eclipse where Git is installed with Windows and then it says I should do the same if I am using Cygwin. I'm not sure where in my Cygwin folder Git is installed. Can anyone help me? Thanks!

you can point to {{cygwin_path}}/bin/git.exe
or you can install git separately and point to that instance.

sudo apt-get install android-sdk
and it worked but when i'm trying to path the sdk folder i installed, find no directory in /home/$user/... that sdk exist!
anybody knows where it's installed?
If you are behind a proxy, do NOT configure the Automatic proxy configuration URL (URL to .pac file), because this didn't worked for me.
Configure the proxy manually, this fixed it for me.

Error in installing puppet enterprise

I have downloaded the Puppet Enterprise 3.7 installer from the PuppetLabs website,
but while installing I got the below error...
./puppet-enterprise-installer
ERROR: This is a supported platform, but this is not the installer for this platform. Please use the platform specific installer
(puppet-enterprise-3.7.2-el-6-x86_64).
How can I fix this?
You can get the enterprise linux puppet installer for 3.7.2 following this link.
https://s3.amazonaws.com/pe-builds/released/3.7.2/puppet-enterprise-3.7.2-el-6-x86_64.tar.gz
Looks to me like you downloaded it for the wrong linux distribution.
Hope this helps.
** This only applies to the open source version **
Which distribution are you installing this on? The error is telling you to use the EL6 install package which is available on their yum repo. It's much easier if you just install their repo package:
rpm -Uhv http://yum.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs-release-el-6.noarch.rpm
and then run yum install puppet facter.

CentOS 6.6 x64 - cPanel 11.46.2 - Git not updating, Stuck on 1.7.1

I am not sure why, but last night I ran "yum install git". Apparently my server already had (or should have had) git installed. According to the changelog, cPanel/WHM 11.46.2 should come with Git 2.2.0: https://documentation.cpanel.net/display/ALD/11.46+Change+Log
My installed git version is 1.7.1 !!!
'yum update git' reports there is nothing to do.
'yum remove git' then 'yum update' then 'yum install git', installs again 1.7.1! What gives!
Why does my server not grab the 2.2.0 that my cpanel version ships with? How can I reset this, or use, the one my server is supposed to use? For all I know, it could have had the 2.2.0 version, then me doing 'yum install git' could have messed it up?
I don't really want to download a tar, extract, and install the source manually. I shouldn't have to, I should be able to "yum install git" and get the version my cpanel comes with.
In WHM I updated RPM database.. still no go..
I got my bare repo on my cpanel bare-metal server, and can "git push" to it. The problem I have is I get a 500 internal server error after the first checkout, which puts all the files in my public_html through the post-receive hook. I edited 'index.php' just by 1 edit, saved it, and the error is gone and the site operates as normal. I don't know why I am getting an internal error, maybe a bug with this old Git version when checking out from the bare repo?
I always have this issue with yum, it never has or installs the version it's supposed to for my cpanel version.
I have spent a few hours on this already, and hoping someone can guide me in the right direction. Thanks in advance.

How to install libmysql under Cygwin?

I am trying to build db-mysql extension for NodeJS under Cygwin. The problem is, that it requires libmysql development libraries and include files. I have no idea how to install (and where to get) this stuff to work with Cygwin. Under Ubuntu i would write something like this:
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev
But this is not possible under Cygwin. Also there is no available libmysql package when I run Cygwin's setup.exe. Does anybody know how to solve this isue?
I have installed wamp under Windows which includes MySQL database. I would like to use databases from that installation under Cygwin, is that possible?
Thanks
It's available from Cygwin Ports, a large repository of additional Cygwin packages that can be installed through Cygwin's setup.exe.
