Out of curiosity: how did you go about finding the best place to report this bug?

Dear Diaoul, it is considered rude on this mailing list to top-post, and likewise to cull the Cc: list. Please do not do that.

I've installed TortoiseGit and seen the same/similar "issue" with its commands too. Especially, TortoiseGit doesn't show a command to create a repository, which I don't know is with Git or the communication between Git v2.5.2 and TortoiseGit.

v2.5.2 installation on Windows 10
Installation of 64bit could complete, but running Git GUI always prompt the
