cmake(windows): set correct path to the system Git config

dennisameling · gitster · commit 50101b93ca69 · 2021-06-28T20:11:50.000-07:00
Currently, when Git for Windows is built with CMake, the system Git config is expected in a different location than when building via `make`: the former expects it to be in `<runtime-prefix>/mingw64/etc/gitconfig`, the latter in `<runtime-prefix>/etc/gitconfig`. Because of this, things like `git clone` do not work correctly (because cURL is no longer able to find its certificate bundle that it needs to validate HTTPS certificates). See the full bug report and discussion here: git-for-windows#3071 (comment). This commit aligns the CMake-based build by mimicking what is already done in `config.mak.uname`. This closes git-for-windows#3071. Signed-off-by: Dennis Ameling <dennis@dennisameling.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
