I compiled git version in msys2 for x86_64 architecture according to the steps posted in the following link: https://wiki.geany.org/howtos/win32/msys2
I ended up with the following errors. I fixed it by adding option "--use-temp-file" to "windres" in src/Makefile.am
make[3]: Entering directory '/home/Dreli/geanyTemp/geany/src' windres -i ../geany_private.rc --input-format=rc -o geany_private.res -O coff ../geany_private.rc:2:0: fatal error: when writing output to : Invalid argument
compilation terminated. C:\msys64\mingw64\bin\windres.exe: can't open file `page:': Invalid argument C:\msys64\mingw64\bin\windres.exe: preprocessing failed. make[3]: [Makefile:1505: geany_private.res] Error 1 (ignored) CCLD geany.exe
