While only tangentially related, I'd point out that if your product is going to actually _bundle_ Git, then be prepared that it has quite a hefty set of dependencies, so unless you're going to rely on the target OS to provide them (which is, as I understand it, a no-go on Windows) you might be required to invest considerable effort into that endaevor.
On the other hand, if it's not a shrink-wrap product but rather something enterprise-y (kind of software usually installed by a dedicated technician - as opposed to being downloaded and click-through installing by a layperson), you might just use what Git for Windows ships, I suppose.
