Hi,
I am a new comer to this list but I have used git for two week
development control. I think it is a very cool tool, the only flaw is that I have not found Windows version of it. Does git just aim at Linux kernel development? Is there any plan or in the future to migrate it to windows?

Thanks!
Bo

Funny. The first three hits I get from Google are

Wikipedia,
GitWiki and
msysgit

The first two pointing to the third. And happily enough, there is a Download page at the third site. Oh, and it has a description what its affiliation with git is.

The "featured download" is still not the one I'd recommend.

So, if I want to get invovled with the Windows version git development, I should download the Gitme, right?

Yes, if you want to contribute to git on Windows.

And if you only want to use git, you can download
