Just wanted to share that with at least wine 1.7.23 I can install msysgit using the netboot method, clone and build git ok. I had to do this to make gcc works actually, but it's probably no big deal

$ mkdir -p ~/.wine/drive_c/usr/libexec/gcc/mingw32 -p $ cp ~/.wine/drive_c/msysgit/mingw/bin/as.exe ~/.wine/drive_c/usr/libexec/gcc/mingw32/ $ cp ~/.wine/drive_c/msysgit/mingw/bin/ld.exe ~/.wine/drive_c/usr/libexec/gcc/mingw32/

This may open a door for many people like me, who are interested in Windows support, but don't own a Windows license (and probably don't want to dual boot anyway). Of course tricky stuff would require real Windows, but this would help with most "standard" windows stuff.
