Worth noting that on Windows, you *must* be in the git bash shell. If
you try this from the windows command prompt you get:
Initialized empty Git repository in
/cygdrive/c/dmd2dev/src/gitdmd/druntime/.git/
fatal: exec ssh failed.
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

BTW: Thanks Jason,  I think this will be a great step forward for D.
