I am just kicking the GIT tires. So far, so good. But I can't get git diff to work with BC3. So ingrained is BC into my every-day programming life, that I would kick GIT to the curb and just keep using BC before I would use git and kick BC to the curb.

git --version output:
git version 2.5.0.windows.1
