Please provide evidence for such bold assumptions.
How is it "bold" to see that the majority of widows users does not use
or even like command line tools. And as git is command line tool (most
of them), users does use third party tools instead of the original.
I know companies where the "developers" doesn't even know of the
existent of a git command line use. They look with owe when they see
that I use a shell to use git.
Hasn't this drifted a little off topic. The issue was typeable characters in
URLs and how that affects the accessibility of various paths.
We (Git) should be avoiding lock-in to particular systems where possible.
