I've installed git(msysgit).

Does something need to be done to Hudson to pick up a PATH change, or perhaps tell hudson where the git executable is?

I still get the error

(In reply to comment #2)
This is using the Hudson "Source Code Management" -> Git option.
I guess the alternative is not to use this and instead run git in a batch command since it is on the machine.

I"ve added the git location to the slaves hudson config.

We are getting closer:

$ "C:\Program Files\Git\cmd" clone -o origin/master http://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/e4/org.eclipse.orion.server.git c:\hb\workspace\orion-jstest-windows


Cannot run program "C:\Program Files\Git\cmd": CreateProcess error=5, Access is denied
