Well, given the fact that the Qt devs are certainly working on windows
with git and my own experience I think most of that information is
simply outdated. Git on windows is slower than on linux currently, that
however might even be the difference of filesystems, but other than that
I haven't found anything that didn't work that you usually use
"everyday". Except maybe (yeah there's always an exception ;) that
cloning a local repository on your disk might need the git-bash-shell
instead of the standard windows cmd.exe. I never looked closer at why
that sometimes doesn't work though.
