Congratulations on the switch, but isn't the decision a bit premature?
I have read the log of last week's GHC meeting on IRC and nobody
seemed to know if Git runs well on Windows with a large project like
GHC. I also prefer Git to Darcs or Mercurial on Linux, but this rather
quick decision makes it look like Windows support of GHC is an
afterthought.
I tried git on Windows and it seemed to basically work. If anyone finds
any problems with it, on Windows or otherwise, then this is the time to
shout, before we have actually made the move.
I also tried it out a bit, and didn't have any problems cloning
repositories on a local drive, network drive, or remotely. I tried both
the cygwin git and the MSYS git.
Cheers,
Simon
