I'm sorry but I don't even have a Windows installation on my machine and
I don't intend to personally work on Windows support. If you need to
keep ActiveState working seamlessly, please post patches. I hate to say
it, but that's just how it should work - if someone cares about Git
working on a non-mainstream (for Git audience) platform, he needs to
maintain it, not ask the "core" developers do it. It's like if you
withheld random kernel features because they break m68k and noone is
around to fix it.

If someone cares, we'll get patches.
