I installed the latest Git (x64 version) and cleaned up my path, removing
all GNU/Linux like paths on there. This now seems to build OK with one
error on building:

There are also quite a few warnings. However, there is a exe in the
run/RelWithDebInfo folder which seems to work. What is annoying is that it
has now lost the Git information in the name, so it now just says Version
2.1.0-<Custom> (where <custom> is my custom name), whereas before it would
say something like Version 2.1.0-<Custom> (v2.1.0rc0-2571-g2066c85 from
master). This is critically important when we are doing incremental
releases. Can this be put back in?
