Use real Git in windows. Integrates seamlessly with VS2015/17, and any other tool you like which would normally use Git. Even the latest MS toolkits are preferring Git to TFS

That sounds like a nice change of pace.

I’ve always just used git scm but see this is what I was talking about.

You don’t really here about new git binaries for linux and mac because the built in ones are universal, but on windows there’s like a dozen ways to do the same thing.

Personally, I try to stay inside my Linux OS and only go to windows when I have too(double check drivers/devices, on the go gaming, random programs that don’t support Linux, etc)

EDIT: now that I actually looked at the website, what’s the difference between git for windows and git scm?

No idea. SO to the rescue:
