Once again, I understand that the Windows PowerShell<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_PowerShell>, present in VISTA upwards is fairly ahead of its time? Have not used it much myself so probably I am not best suited to talk about it. Martin. On Fri, Jul 5, 2013 at 12:10 PM, Martin Akolo Chiteri < martin.chiteri@gmail.com> wrote:
Git was originally created by Linus Torvalds for the maintenance of the Linux kernel <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git_(software)>, so I doubt it would beat the best Linux or UNIX-like shell out there.

And with `` ... more than a decent UNIX shell ...'' I mean that besides having a UNIX command interpreter<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_shell>that comes along with the git shell on Windows, you also have a neat client to a revision control system. If you may prefer, just refer to it as a versioning file system <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Versioning_file_system>(git:// ....).
I hope that is clear enough @Collins?

More than a decent UNIX shell yawah! (I hope you meant a More decent UNIX shell) , if you meant the first.... woi!
I mean the first form, i.e: ``..... git bash client on Windows usually provides more than a decent UNIX shell ....''.
I was hoping the meaning would not be lost in the words. Is there something wrong with the statement?
