The Git project does not ship any binaries or installers. The Git for Windows project, however, does ship the installer you had trouble with, and you can report this at

    https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues

which is their issue tracker. People from that project are surely monitoring this list as well, but but interacting with their issue tracker directly would help them.
