| 47 | +<p>This page lists the prerequisites required to run <a href="https://git-for-windows.github.io/">Git for Windows</a>.</p> |
| 48 | +<h2 id="windows-version">Windows version</h2> |
| 49 | +<p>As of Git for Windows v2.10.1, Windows Vista or later are required. The last version of Git for Windows to support Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 is <a href="https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/tag/v2.10.0.windows.1">v2.10.0</a>.</p> |
| 50 | +<p>Why?</p> |
| 51 | +<p>Parts of Git are implemented in shell script, and Git for Windows runs those scripts via <a href="https://msys2.github.io/">MSYS2</a>'s POSIX emulation layer, which in turn is based on the <a href="https://cygwin.com">Cygwin POSIX emulation layer</a>. Seeing as Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 are years past their official end of life, the Cygwin project ended their Herculean efforts to support those Windows versions.</p> |
