Please, it is really, really crucial that you specify precisely what version of the package you talk about. It is tempting to say something like "windows-7" or "I used Git for Windows", but please keep in mind that this is hardly specific. Windows 7 can be anything between 32-bit and 64-bit, with or without service packs, in administrator mode or user mode. Git for Windows is even worse because we bundle packages into a single installer. However, from the way you describe things I imagine that you used a version of the installer. The installer contains a file that lists the individual package versions, therefore it should be good enough to specify which version `git version` reports.
Please make a point of including all of this information in your bug reports to make it easier for the people who you ask for help.
Ciao, Johannes
