We have to make a small distinction here. Are we talking about users or
developers? As it was pointed out earlier, GIT should not be seen as a
distribution mechanism, this is a task best left elsewhere, and possibly
managed by the frontend. It should not be difficult to just archive all the
planes for download in a single install package. If you want to use the
unstable, unreliable planes from git, then you should put up with the idea that
it might require a little more than a single click for you. That said, it is
perfectly possible to make a tool that will do this for you automatically.

Normally windows users want everything in a 1 click download like precompiled
packages. Maybe we can do this serverside, let them check a box for each
aircraft or select all and simply give them a link?

The greatest problem i can see is that there's no wget equivalent for Windows,
or tools to parse strings from a file, inbuilt in the shell. That's why I was
mentioning python: it's easier to get working on Windows and these tools are
part of the standard library. On linux, of course, you can get all the data
with a savvy combination of wget, grep and sed.
