Hi,
Just wondering if there is a canonical place to download the MinGW port
of git for non-git users... ideally precompiled, since a lot of Windows
users probably won't have MinGW installed? Or is the port too fragile
for that, still?

There is no such place, yet. Some work is still that makes the toolset
relocatable (i.e. independent of the prefix) - currently, the
installation location is compiled into the binaries, which is a big
no-no on Windows.
But I can't say that the port is fragile; I use it daily in a production
environment.
