The above instructions are slightly outdated. Here is what recently worked for me. Use linux to download and extract necessary files:
sudo apt-get install zstd # download unpack tool# get rsync and necessary librarieswget http://repo.msys2.org/msys/x86_64/rsync-3.2.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zstwget http://repo.msys2.org/msys/x86_64/libzstd-1.5.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zstwget http://repo.msys2.org/msys/x86_64/libxxhash-0.7.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst# unpacktar -I zstd -xvf rsync-3.2.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zsttar -I zstd -xvf libzstd-1.5.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zsttar -I zstd -xvf libxxhash-0.7.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
now copy everything to Windows...for example MinGW/bin
or Git/usr
as explained above
