GIT and BitBucket

GullRaDriel

Cloning a git repository from BitBucket can fail producing that kind of logs:

Clonage dans '.'...
remote: Counting objects: 7008, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (5921/5921), done.
error: échec RPC ; curl 56 GnuTLS recv error (-110): La connexion TLS n’a pas été terminée correctement.
fetch-pack: unexpected disconnect while reading sideband packet
fatal: fin de fichier prématurée
fatal: échec de index-pack

Working solution was to force IPv4 with -4 option, like in the following example:

git clone -4 https://giturl.com/repo.git .

Adding proxy to MSYS2

GullRaDriel

If you ever need to use a proxy when updating / installing packages in msys2 you’ll have to set the following environnement variables, and put them i.e in your .bash_profile :

# .bash_profile example
# Note: username and password have to be url encoded in case they contain special chars
export http_proxy=http://USERNAME:PASSWORD@proxy:port
# or like this if not user/password required
# export http_proxy=http://proxy:port
export https_proxy=$http_proxy
export ftp_proxy=$http_proxy
export rsync_proxy=$http_proxy
# if you need a proxy ignore list
export no_proxy="localhost,127.0.0.1,localaddr,.yourlocaldomain.ext,.local"

MSYS2 ALLEGRO5 Setup

GullRaDriel

I’ve set up my last allegro 5 install + compilers in less than 15 minutes.

1) download and install msys2 ( https://www.msys2.org/ )

Now launch the msys2 terminal and copy pasta the followings:
