After installation try running git --version within
command prompt (press Win-R, type cmd, press
Enter) to make sure all good:
C:\> git --version
git version 1.7.4.msysgit.0
Setup Curl
Instructions blatently copied from vundle readme Installing
Curl on Windows is easy as Curl is
bundled with msysgit!
But before it can be used with Vundle it's required make
curl run in command prompt. The easiest way is to
create curl.cmd with this content
@rem Do not use "echo off" to not affect any child calls.
@setlocal
@rem Get the absolute path to the parent directory, which is assumed to be the
@rem Git installation root.
@for /F "delims=" %%I in ("%~dp0..") do @set git_install_root=%%~fI
@set PATH=%git_install_root%\bin;%git_install_root%\mingw\bin;%PATH%
@if not exist "%HOME%" @set HOME=%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%
@if not exist "%HOME%" @set HOME=%USERPROFILE%
@curl.exe %*
And copy it to C:\Program Files\Git\cmd\curl.cmd,
assuming msysgit was
installed to c:\Program Files\Git
to verify all good, run:
C:\> curl --version
