Hello Git people

Since I understood that the git-filter-repo is now recommanded by Git to 
replace git-filter-branch, I am trying to use it on Windows 10 under a 
DOS window. The installation and use of this git-filter-repo is really a 
nigthmare on DOS Win10. As there is a git-for-windows specific 
installation, could you make also an installation a little bit more 
Window oriented?

Same with a git-bash window:

$ git filter-repo --analyse
