How are you doing the cross compile? I think you have to do it after copying to Linux. I don't know if it'd help, but you can have a clone of the git repo at your home that you push to instead of github. Running the tester by pulling from that would solve the missing file issue.

Another candidate idea: Is it possible to run git through cygwin? It basically provides linux on windows... Something that I always have when developing on windows.
