Ok, learned something new, done for today :)

Anyway, looking at this page [1] tells me that I can have a variable 'GIT' to 
use for git protocol. But when I add;
variables = {
    GIT = [[c:\program files\git\bin\git.exe]]
    ... some more stuff
}

I still get;
  'git' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
  operable program or batch file.

  Error: Failed cloning git repository.

How does this 'GIT' variable work then?

Thijs

PS. It seems that the 'MSVCRT' and 'LUALIB' variables are not listed on the 
page [1], is it outdated?
