I was not there - but you should not simply neglect that there are
serious issues with git under win. Please ask e.g. Xqt - as far as I
know he was not able to set-up a properly working system for git
review under win until today... which means we have lost one of our
best and hardest-working developers just because git migration... that
is bad!!

To make it clear I personally would like to just forget about win -
but that is not very clever, even more since we had a hard time during
git migration just to keep all the stuff running for win users. To me
it looks very like MWF did forget about win developers...

Just to have this mentioned once more - you all know that there is
still the possibility to checkout the code by svn (thanks to github)!
Please confer [1] as all git repos are mirrored to github and they
allow also svn access to the data. Hope this helps for regular users.
