I have a branch of the current tla code at address@hidden/tla--short-path--1.3 My archive is available on the supermirror at: http://mirrors.sourcecontrol.net/address@hiddenI also have a public repo if the super mirror doesn't update often enough. It does have the latest code right now, though.
I just got it (today) to the point where it seems to handle all the cases I throw at it. You can still run into path limitations if you have really long category names or archive names (in my case I have something with ~30 chars for each which causes problems.)
For it, I believe you need diff, diff3, patch, tar, gzip, and ssh. I'm not sure if there is anything else.
I run cygwin, and have never really had the need to setup Msys. If you have that, do you want to try compiling?
You need to use "configure --with-short-paths=1". If you're interested, thanks. If not, no big deal. John =:->
