don't understand it right.

when I do in msys2:

PACKAGE_POSTFIX=-daily OSGEO4W_POSTFIX=64 ./mswindows/osgeo4w/package.sh

grass75svn.bat is copied to C:\OSGeo4W64\bin\, but with this line:

SET OSGEO4W_ROOT=@osgeo4w@

when is this replaced? when is postinstall.bat launched? only when the
compiled package is uploaded to OSGeo4W and then downloaded by the
OSGeo4W-installer?

in the wiki (https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/wiki/CompileOnWindows#Usage)

---------------------
Usage

To start GRASS use the icon on the desktop or if you want to be able to use
the command line from within GRASS.

Type in the OSGeo4W cmd console (assuming that we compiled GRASS 7.1):

c:\osgeo4w\bin\grass71svn.bat
---------------------

when I do this with the self compiled C:\OSGeo4W64\bin\grass75svn.bat, then
GRASS can't be started because of the missing correct  SET OSGEO4W_ROOT=....
