This patch is intended just as a FYI example on customizing the WinGit
installer for e.g. corporate deployment or similar needs, as a starting
point in case anyone needs to do that.
This patch removes some steps redundant for our usage scenario (choose
of the $PATH mode, showing release notes), slightly customizes the
default Git configuration and changes the quickstart icon from Git Bash
to Git GUI (this one might be worth considering for upstream too,
especially after stock git-gui gains the remotes management support).
