I explain better. If I open a console under windows with cmd.exe and type "git" when I hit enter button I have an error message that says that "command git is not known" This is because git.exe directory is _not_ (normally) in PATH environment variable. So, or msysgit installation *modifies* the user PATH adding the bin directory, or I have to found git bin directory myself and manage to add to the PATH of qgit process environment. The question is: "How I find git.exe??"
