Getting started contributing to Git can be difficult on a Windows machine.
CONTRIBUTING.md contains a guide to getting started, including detailed
steps for setting up build tools, running tests, and submitting patches
to upstream.

The current CONTRIBUTING.md file is actually a code of conduct. This is
a valuable document, but is misnamed. A following patch will replace
CONTRIBUTING.md with a guide to contributing to Git using a Windows machine.

It is better to state clearly expectations and intentions than to assume
quietly that everybody agrees.
This Code of Conduct is the Open Code of Conduct as per
http://todogroup.org/opencodeofconduct/ (the only modifications are the
adjustments to reflect that there is no "response team" in addition to the
Git for Windows maintainer, and the addition of the link to the Open Code
of Conduct itself).
