This repository contains historical Win32 build support files, tools, and MSYS runtime environments required for building and packaging BitKeeper for 32-bit Windows (x86_32).
These files originated from a historical BitKeeper Windows build machine (C:\build) and were provided by Wayne Scott. They represent the exact toolchain components and MSYS runtime packages used in BitKeeper's original Windows build infrastructure.
Contains the MinGW toolchain and build utilities:
