Actually, the GPL is applied to the binary form too, and it prescribes how the program can be redistributed. There is no restriction on how the user can run the program, but we still must give to the user a copy of GPL in the appropriate way. Besides, the user should acknowledge that he or she is warned the program is provided "AS IS" without warranty of any kind. If the user cannot accept that, he or she should not run the program. So, the current Git installer fully adheres to GPL requirements and installs Git in the traditional for Windows way. I don't see anything here that can be considered as bug. Dmitry
