Followed instructions here: Libcurl.dll error with Git push and this initially worked. Now the exact same error occurs but there is no Libcurl.dll anymore. There was a Libcurl.dll in Git/bin but I renamed that to dll-save so not sure where the library is. I tried shutting down the MINGW32 application which I was using to access Git and restarting it but get same error.

Instead of the old and obsolete msysgit 1.9.5 form git-scm.com, try and unzip wherever you want PortableGit-2.4.3.1-2nd-release-candidate-64-bit.7z.exe.
Add the Git installation path to your %PATH%. For instance:

set PATH=<path/to/PortableGit-2.4.3.1-2nd-release-candidate-64-bit>/cmd;%PATH%

It does include a mingw64/bin/mibcurl-4.dll, which should work just fine.

I explain why that 64 version of the new Git for Windows came to be in "Why is it that if you download Git 2.0 from the net, you always get a 1.9.4 installer package?".

  • Thanks, I will try this but I am puzzled about the error for two reasons: Firstly, I did have things working and and secondly, the error message must at least be misleading because of the complete absence now of the dll it refers to. – Jeff Jun 16 '15 at 20:27
