But maybe we should require them to have msysGit? After all, if the package is too small, no Windows developer will take it seriously, right? ;-)
They would still require the rest of the msysgit environment to be able to use the result. Not until we have zero scripts left as git commands can we ditch the msysgit environment. So yes, even for msvc-built git is msysgit required. Its just not build with MinGW.
