If I can be excused for being frank, and saying something potentially
blasphemous:

I think he way forward on Windows is an implementation like libgit2 or
git# with some sort of gui/ide integration.  I never understood why
users on Windows want to use something as POSIX'y as git.git.
Wouldn't they prefer some visual-studio integration thing? *scratches
