Why do I have to accept the GPL to install msysgit?

Because that's the only license you have to use git.

Again, GPL governs distribution, not use.

Get over it, or use another SCM,

I like and use GPL, but I won't force my users to accept the GPL in
order to use programs released under it.

What are they forced into if they indeed only want to _use_ Git?

They nevertheless must be made aware of the rules they have to follow in 
case the idea of redistributing it crosses their mind.
