What's the current state of the MinGW port? I saw that the release notes for 1.6.0 mention that it was being integrated, but it doesn't sound like an all-out supported release.
On Windows, I've been using the Cygwin port. Everything I need, such as git-svn, has worked, but it's very slow compared to git on Linux or Mac OS. Faster than Subversion, but that doesn't say much. I'll be happy to see a faster, more native Git port available on Windows. (Actually, I'll be happier to not have to use Windows for work anymore, but that might take a little while longer.)
For those (like me) forced to work on Windows.
