I didn't include the stuff about include despite upgrade as guessed it wouldn't be needed

Peobably don;t need all these. Possible remove via PACKAGE_EXCLUDES

For some reason this file wanted but I was missing it in my SDK

Lots of stuff like perl (needed or git) Local and TZ files really bloat the zip but I don;t kno when might be needed

I'm not clear if these filters are actually useful given my almost completely different package list

I'm not at all sure why this is wanted
And shouldn't rebase be being run on 32 bit version?

The existing post-install.bat looks good to me.

Can we also make it portable between terminals? See https://stackoverflow.com/a/77877407/1540350 |
Lots of questions - inline comments in PR and
TODOlines in files.Main question which packages to include as currently it's bigget than the G4W portable
Also need to be clear why this is better than just using MSYS2 - I think MinGW packages are used where possible so better performance. Is that right? What else?
