I have a .sh script that I double-click to have it executed by git for Windows.
Now I need (imagemagick) convert from cygwin (which I have installed) and I'm calling it with its absolute path - /c/cygwin64/bin/convert.exe - but I get:
fatal error - cygheap base mismatch detected. This problem is probably due to using incompatible versions of the cygwin DLL.
Wrapping the actual convert call in a cygwin bash call, or even in a cmd.exe call, doesn't help. This is a bit strange because I sometimes use cygwin executables directly in .cmd scripts, and that always worked.
What can I do? A solution that keeps my program limited to one file would be preferred.
(I know I could probably just install Windows-native imagemagick. But then the next day I need another cygwin tool in a git-for-Win-Shellscript .. also, I'd like to understand what's happening here. And, yes, I will probably make git for Windows obsolete in my workplace, if possible)
