    11Here are the steps I had to take to build WebKit on Windows 8.1 without Cygwin (Apple Win port)

    3 1. Do NOT install Git from http://www.git-scm.com/download/win or http://msysgit.github.io/. This package will install a sh.exe next to git.exe (so it will therefore be in your $PATH), at a location which has spaces in it. This confuses GNU Make. The GitHub app has a similar problem.

     31. Install the following programs:
    64  1. Visual Studio. https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/products/visual-studio-community-vs
    75  2. ActiveState Perl. 64-bit is fine. http://www.activestate.com/activeperl/downloads

    1210  7. GNU Make. http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/make.htm

This is because it installs a sh.exe in your path, and if the location of that sh.exe has spaces in it, Make gets confused. When I installed this, I unchecked all the options.

    15 3. Make sure all the programs you just installed (except Visual Studio) are accessible through your $PATH. http://www.itechtics.com/customize-windows-environment-variables/ You may be required to reboot after modifying $PATH before new shells will see the updated variable.
