git-http-push missing in git for windows 1.9.x #174
Description
We're using git over http/webdav for quite a while now and updated to git for windows 1.9.0 recently (which, together with 1.9,2 also seems to be the only binary version available). This version lacks git-http-push.exe, so pushes into our server repository are no longer possible (git-http-push is not a git command error message).
The regular git release 1.9.1 which we use under linux still contains the above command.
I'm definitely not what you would call a git expert, so I would appreciate any hints on how to circumvent this problem.

If you desperately need
git http-push, you can install & run msysGit, the development environment for Git for Windows. It will build Git (most likely withoutgit http-push) and install it; you can then callcd /git && make git-http-push.exeto build the executable and then copygit-http-push.exeinto your Git for Windows'libexec/git-core/directory.If you want to say thanks for all the hard work that went into making Git for Windows what it is today, you could then go on to investigate why
http-pushis not built by default (most likely it has something to do with theNO_CURL = YesPleasein theMINGWsection ofconfig.mak.uname), fix it and submit a pull request.kusma commentedon Apr 28, 2014
I've identified the reason for this breakage: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg48838.html

@hendrikbelitz Does this version resolve the issue for you? https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1737924/Git-1.9.2-http-push.exe

This should be fixed now by 83227c1 thanks to a commit from @kusma.
The fix still needs to be verified.
