Of course this doesn't copy everything in the right places. But it
does work for me.
As Nick points out, you also have to have an sc.ini in the right place with
the right values and probably some other stuff that comes in the zip file but
isn't in git for whatever reason. But I haven't dealt with all of that in
Windows recently, so I don't remember the details. It's easier in Linux from
what I recall, but regardless, once it's set up all you have to do is update
the repositories and rebuild, and it works (though in Windows, you'll probably
have to copy the resultant dmd binary due to the lack of symlinks). The
situation with git should probably be improved though such that you can build
the whole chain with just what git gives you.

I think someone mentioned that github supports some kind of wrapper
projects/repositories. When you clone it, it will clone all the
repositories it wraps. No need to figure out where to clone a given
repository in your system. Then you can have a build script in the
wrapper repository that builds everything and sets up a dmd.conf/sc.ini.
