The usual way to do MSVC builds of packages that use Autotools is to use
wrapper scripts 'ar-lib' and 'compile' that provide a Unix-y interface to
the MSVC compilers. See
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gettext.git;a=blob;f=INSTALL.windows
for how this gets used.

Is there no 'git' available for these operating systems? The usual way to
install Gnulib is through git. See also
