Hi,

Thank you for the responses.

Yes, I saw the discussion, but couldn't figure out the final outcome.

Indeed, I'd suggest to remove the mention of any other platforms if it's windows-only.

And if it's windows-only, then it makes sense to move it to git-for-windows, at least for a bird's-eye view.

Kind regards, Ilya Kantor
