This is probably just because you haven't pulled junio's repo
recently, which contains the 1.7.4.rc1 tag. The tip is the same,
indeed.

I'm on Vista 64 if that matters. And I'm using msysGit e59039e.

It's the line "git add .gitattributes" is the first that fails in
'setup'. Actually, all git-commands seems to fail.

But now I also observe that just trying to run t0000-basic fails:

$ ./t0000-basic.sh
./t0000-basic.sh: line 24: ../git: is a directory
You do not seem to have built git yet.

Now this is suspicious:
$ ls ../git.exe
../git.exe*

$ ls ../git
Debug/  git.vcproj  git.vcproj.Hue-PC.kusma.user  git.wwdb

Aha! The MSVC project generator creates a folder called 'git' at the
root, so anything trying to execute '../git' fails!

$ ../git help
sh.exe": ../git: is a directory

After deleting that folder, t0000-basic passes again. As does your
test. So now I've got to figure out what is different between your
test and mine. Perhaps I misdiagnosed to begin with?
