Hi, I use Msysgit (PortableGit-1.9.5-preview20141217) on WinXP. I try to set up the spell check inside the commit message edit control in the git gui window.
I try to follow the way described here: https://tarasalenin.wordpress.com/2010/09/11/configure-git-gui-spell-checker-on-windows/
Here are the main steps:
1, install the aspell binary, I use this one: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6233638/aspell-0-6-for-windows
2, install the aspell English dict from http://aspell.net/win32/
3, I even try to set the config file: gui.spellingdictionary=en
Every time I try to run the git gui, it prompt a message box says that:
"Spell checking is unavailable"
"Unknown mode none"
