There are understandable reasons as to why this is, starting with &ldquo;where the heck do I find the various python versions on Windows&rdquo;. For me the problem was that I needed <a href="http://git-scm.com/docs/git-p4">git-p4</a> to extract some code history out of a Perforce repository and guess what, git-p4 is written in Python. Only solution for me was that I had to find a way to make this work short of throwing Linux in a VM just to get a git import going.</p>
