Comment Comment by tomjen3 Microsoft made win dev tolerable by including Linux.To properly work with git I installed gitbash -- that is essentially Linux in a box, complete with git, ssh and the basic bash tools like cat.To do more complicated things, you can install WSL, which is literally a virtual machine running Linux, well integrated with the Windows system.The problem of course is that well-integrated is not the same as native, but MS does have some of the best languages available, C# is pretty great. parent tomjen3 3 years ago
