Bit of a dampener on GIT on MinGW :-

        $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
        Initialized empty Git repository in C:/MSYS/src/git/.git/
        error: git-checkout-index: unable to create symlink RelNotes 
(Function not implemented)

No Symbolic links !

There are symbolic links provided by Windows by SFU (Services For Unix) 
apparently.
