I... don't recall building it.  I agree that it's a work-in-progress,
or at least the GUI is.  I use the GUI (native win32) and also use the
same git implementation via Cygwin to manage my workspaces, even
though native builds run from a cmd.exe window.  This works well
enough for me; maybe it could work well enough for you.

I'm not arguing anything re: kerbsrc.zip.  I don't even know what it
is.  I was only responding to your comment about git on Windows.
