Today Git is typically extended (at least initially in prototyping
mode) through Perl, Python, TCL or Bourne shell scripts.  Although
the first three are available natively on Windows the last requires
Cygwin... and we've had some issues with ActiveState Perl on Windows
in the past too.

Just for kicks and giggles it would be nice if someone tried out
one of the native Windows bourne shell ports[1] just to see how much
is missing.  A bunch of command line utilities would have to be ported
as well; maybe too many.  But i've held out booting a Windows box
for a long time so.... not it!

I think that before starting to think about the porcelain scripts, you
need to port the plumbing. :-)
