Subject: Compiling git for Windows

Oddly I'm not able to find any instructions on how to build Git for
Windows. I've done a clone of the repository here:

https://github.com/msysgit/git

I did attempt to try doing it myself. I installed 'make' and mingw-gcc
in Cygwin and attempted 'make' from the git directory but it fails
immediately (I can post information on the failure if needed, but I'm
assuming I'm not taking the correct approach).

Can someone point me to some instructions on how to build Git for
Windows? Thanks.
