where do you get the common command-line tools (ls, cp, mv, man, etc.)?
If you install msysgit, one of the options is to make its suite of tools available generally (i.e. to put them into your path). There is a broader set of apps common to *nix from GnuWin32 or UnxUtils.
But I use cmd.exe for a command prompt, when I'm not managing git. There are other shells around, but more systems to deal with than I have time or permission to customize.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
