Is there a file which shows all the current packages and directory setup available on each build type?

   Hi Chris,

   What do you mean by "build type"?

   I meant in particular unstaged, i was hoping i didn't need to have the
   command to spit out all the paths from powershell.

   I guess it's easier to just say what I want to do. I want to use the msys shell, I can do that by entering sh --login -i within the msys/bin directory. However, I have no idea where that directory is. Other posts alluded to C:\msys\bin -- but cd'ing into there gives me this error in my script:
   The system cannot find the path specified.

   So I would like to know all the paths for pre-installed software on the unstable branch (and if this is constantly updated at any url)

   msys is available on "unstable" build worker image: http://help.appveyor.com/discussions/questions/629-opencv-is-it-pos...

   That's where I saw the post about the directory for msys, however msys/bin
   does not appear to be a valid directory as indicated by: The system cannot
   find the path specified.

    Thanks, is it possible to have a directory dump available online for future
    reference?

    Well, full dump could be overkill in size. You can just add dir <something> to your build script.

    Also note that since command-line git on Windows depends on msys, there is already a version of sh.exe on the path of the appveyor workers. It's a slightly cut-down and out-of-date version of msys that comes with git for Windows, but you can usually download whetever extra files you need.
