From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> While Git for Windows does not _ship_ Python (in order to save on bandwidth), MSYS2 provides very fine Python interpreters that users can easily take advantage of, by using Git for Windows within its SDK. Previously, we excluded the Python bits, mostly due to historical reasons: In the Git for Windows v1.x days, we built Git using MSys/MinGW, without support for any Python scripts. Therefore, let's move out the `NO_PYTHON` definition from the generic part of the MINGW section (which includes special handling for MSYS2/Git for Windows, for the long-superseded msysGit environment, as well as for the setup of probably just one developer remaining with their MSys1) into the two sections that cover different environments than Git for Windows' SDK.
