Well, there you have the main point of our argument: your experience with  
Git on Windows was indeed awful, but why should someone (the overwhelming  
majority?) who never encountered these problems agree with you?

All I'm saying is that you are presenting the conclusions based on your  
personal experience as an objective truth. Git may appear to be "an  
_extremely_ immature product" when used on a system and in a manner  
similar to yours, but you can't say that about everyone.

Have you had a chance to try DustMite yet? I was looking for the  
std.datetime problem you referred to in the D.learn post, but couldn't  
find it.
