Git is not directly buildable on Windows because its Windows port,
which is Git for Windows (earlier known by another moniker --
msysGit) [1], is not completed and fully intergated upstream yet.

So if you want to build GfW yourself you'll have to download msysGit
[2], which is a full development environment *plus* appropriately
patched Git code, and build it [3].

Note that should you have any troubles with it, the proper place to ask
specific questions about this is the msysGit newsgroup [4], not this
list.  There also exists the GfW issue tracker [5].
