libui-rs: Trying to `cargo build` fails on `ui-sys`

Doing: cargo build causes following error on Windows 7 (64bit) and Rust 1.24.

_Compiling ui-sys v0.1.1 error: failed to run custom build command for ui-sys v0.1.1

— stderr fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git thread ‘main’ panicked at '_

The trace leads to: 10: build_script_build::main at .\build.rs:15

If I initialise a git-repo inside the folder, it just keeps the same error-trace but no actual mentioning of a fatal error.

Workaround CMAKE/MSVC issue Closes LeoTindall/libui-rs#2 This change allows error free building on MSVC in both build profiles by forcing libui to always build with the "release" profile. — committed to pgvee/libui-rs by deleted user 6 years ago

I tried the example app and this time it built iui-sys 0.1.3 and iui 0.3.0 worked fine (Win-7-64, Rust 1.26.2). I’ll now start trying it out properly.

I got the same problem on Windows 7-64-bit and Rust 1.25. I installed cmake-3.11.1 64-bit & I copied & pasted the example code into a new --bin project’s src/main.rs and added iui = "0.2" to the Cargo.toml dependencies. Then I ran cargo run --release. The output was:
