Additionally, the use of git is also difficult for many Windows users (80MB installed footprint, last I tried).

Put it on an outboard 1.5TB drive (price about $100) and it will
take about 1/18,000th of the space.  And Windows Update downloads about that
amount or more in patches every time I log in (about once a fortnight).

So it can't really be the size that makes git-on-Windows difficult.
