029aeeed5 (travis-ci: build and test Git on Windows, 2017-03-24) added
support for testing the git build for Windows.
So, update the documentation and the example used in it.
From that commit:
diff --git a/ci/run-windows-build.sh b/ci/run-windows-build.sh

so only git/git from github gets built on windows, not other peoples
trees. One cannot use travis to test ones changes on windows before
submitting them
