I'm not a Windows user, but I'd pitch in a bit of cash for that in the interest of spreading git around more widely. (Deferred self-interest: making git popular with Windows users will probably result in new features I'll want too.) Not enough to fund the whole thing -- I'm talking out-of-pocket here -- but if other people did the same we could probably come up with a respectable sum. Though obviously the best case would be for some company to decide it wants the work done and make an actual business arrangement for it. -Steve
