My problem is that my Documents and Settings folder is on a networked drive

  • 0

My problem is that my “Documents and Settings” folder is on a networked drive which is abysmally slow. Since this is where Git (and most programs) store all of their settings and stuff by default this ends up being a problem since even a simple “mkdir” can take upwards of 30 seconds. How do change Git to store all settings/repos in a diffent location?

    You can store repos anywhere, so put them on the local disk.

    To set up msys’s~ to be on local disk, answer posted to the proposed duplicate contains batch commands to set up stuff you need. Be careful to copy git global setting between old home and new home.
