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.
Whether it's based on POSIX is an implementation detail for the user.
The real question is more command-line Vs GUI than POSIX/Win32. Some
Linux users like GUI, some windows users use command-line. I tried IDE
integration with EGIT, and quite frankly I ended-up doing all the Git
stuff in a terminal next to Eclipse.
Wouldn't they prefer some visual-studio integration thing? *scratches
head*
Visual Studio now has official Git support from MS (based on libgit2 if
I understood correctly). That's cool, but not a reason to kill msysgit
IMHO ;-).
