using visual studio 2008, 9.0.30729.1 SP1 Installed (msys) git, git versin 1.6.5.1.1367.gcd48, git-gui 0.12.0.23.ga91be.
i have the GIT menu in the menu bar, and git icons in the toolbar, but clicking them doesn't have any effect any more. It worked before, on my previous laptop. But that was probably a (little) older git version, and may be little different vs2008. For sure it was vista before, and (64 bit) win 7 now.
it may have broken during install of VS 2008 SP1. I've tried reinstalling Git. i also considered problems with the repository i copied from the old laptop. but renaming the .git dir didn't help. Even the Git-About Git Extensions menu item doesn't work. the buttons in the taskbar activate and deactivate as they should on loading and closing projects however. last thing i considered windows opening outside the screen (laptop config, with changing screen setup) but alt-tab doesn't show antyhing.
Ideas are welcome!
