U can either use the github client == their proprietory and kinda an
interface.
http://windows.github.com/

or U can dowload the kinda native kit from
http://msysgit.github.io/
ie Git for Windows

The later is neat, because even the standard install gives once
cd c:\myGit
git clone gi...@gi.../doxygen/doxygen<https://github.com/doxygen/doxygen>
git clone https://me:myP...@bi.../f<https://github.com/doxygen/doxygen>
oo/secret-project

The snag is in the keys..
- The bitbucket authenticaltion works as its using http auth
- the git@git hub is read only.. so no problem
- But is u want to commit then u need to hace the "key" installed on local
matching remote
- the github windows client does that for you.. ie creates a ssh key and
logs u in etc
- the msys client, u have to deal with that (pain) yourself..

Depending on your skill level, windows.github is probably the easiest.. and
your up and running fast.. issues, merges etc and all.. as a paltform
