+For those not familiar with git, here are the git commands you can use retrieve and compile the Windows branch:
 {{{
-git clone git://git.libusb.org/libusb.git ; retrieve the main branch (if you don't have it already)
-cd libusb
-git branch winusb origin/winusb           ; add the remote "origin/winusb" branch to your repository under the local name "winusb"
-git checkout winusb                       ; select "winusb" as your default development branch

-A separate svn repository for the more up-to-date work-in-progress also exists at [http://code.google.com/p/libusb-winusb-wip/].
+On Windows, if you don't want to use git on the commandline, you can use [http://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/ TortoiseGit] to access and keep in sync with the git repository.[[BR]]
+Note that before you can install [http://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/ TortoiseGit] you need to install [http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/ MSysGit] and make sure that, during the installation of MSysGit, when prompted to adjust the PATH environment, you select "Run Git from the Windows Command Prompt" (2nd option). Also, in the general settings of [http://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/ TortoiseGit], the MSysGit path must point to the MSysGit bin directory (eg: C:Program Files (x86)Gitin")
 
 To compile this source, [http://sourceware.org/pthreads-win32/ pthread-win32] is also required.
