If that is the case, "Git for Windows" probably should package
MSYS as part of it, I would think, to match the expectation of
the users there.  I know two Johannes'es and Han-Wen spent quite
a lot of effort on Windows port and packaging, but perhaps that
little (well, I should not be judging if that is a little or
huge, as I do not do Windows) finishing touch would make Windows
users much happier?
