Redis on Windows is now stronger

I was told it was never meant to be.
I was told that it will get me a lonesome, laughable spot.

Yet, I took that kid under my repo, showed him a trick
or two, like how to live without a fork. Made him simple,
constant and present.

I had a honor to communicate with Salvatore, Claudio,
and also with other people who contributed code, or
pointed at glitches.

Now the time has come to let the kid move on.

The new home for Redis on Windows is fully open,
developed in open; contributions welcomed. There are
more capable hands on the deck. There is a fork
alternative, perhaps even better than fork itself.
It will be tested more and deployed.

Redis on Windows is now stronger.

So, rethink your project. Get involved. It is here:

Redis 2.4 Windows port is ready

New version 2.4.0 from "2.4" branch is ready.

Windows notice:

Background saving operations are supported as foreground
on windows, so it is advised to turn off automatic saving,
and call SAVE and SAVEAOF manualy when needed.

Forked source is at:

  http://github.com/dmajkic/redis

Windows binary files (both 32bit and x64) are hanging at:

  http://github.com/dmajkic/redis/downloads

Direct download link for 2.4.0 binaries:

  https://github.com/downloads/dmajkic/redis/redis-2.4.0-win32-win64.zip

I'll use Redis 2.4 internaly from now on since it is faster,
takes less memory, and tests take significant less time to execute.

2.2 forked branch should receive an update in a day or two,
to match official 2.2.14 and with backported fixes from 2.4 port.

Thank you for support.

64bit Redis Windows port - done.

Windows x64 build is ready and passes all tests.

Please note that there are more differences between 64bit Linux and 64 bit Windows, than on 32bit, so this build should be treated as "needs more testing", beside the fact that all supplied redis tests pass.

Prebuilt binaries for v2.1.7, both 32bit and x64 versions, can be downloaded from here:

https://github.com/dmajkic/redis/downloads

Ported Redis to Windows

Since am officially on vacation and since I won't travel anywhere, at least I can do is to support projects I like. Redis is first.

I was already exploring redis, learning how it works. While doing so, I came close to full win32 port. Moments ago I polished a few last bits and here it is.

Details:

• Native MinGW port, no external dependencies
• Windows 32 (didn't try to compile on Win64)
• Everything is ported: server, client, linenoise, fix utils, benchmark.
• As close to unix version as possible
• All tests pass
• All commands work
• Only caveat is since there is no fork() on windows
  commands using it do work, but they work in foreground.

If you have full msysGit or ruby DevKit you can clone my repository and build it using make from command line. More detail in README and source code comments, and I'll post more here about porting.

Nice. I wonder how Serbian and Croatian got into 8 languages supported by GitHub.
