I feel your pain: Windows does not make this stuff too easy, and most  
people playing with these tools are using *nix variants so you don't  
get much support.

I just wrote a really basic but gentle tutorial on getting git up and  
running on Windows:

Github's docs have a guide for Windows users:

newbies

Good luck!

cheers,
Matt
