<h1 id="prerequisites">Prerequisites</h1>
<p>This page lists the prerequisites required to run <a href="https://gitforwindows.org/">Git for Windows</a>.</p>
<h2 id="windows-version">Windows version</h2>
<p>Git for Windows requires Windows 7 Service Pack 1 or later. The last version to support Windows Vista and Server 2008 was <a href="https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/tag/v2.37.1.windows.1">v2.37.1</a>. 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>
<p>Why?</p>
<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 Vista, Server 2008, XP and Server 2003 are years past their official end of life, the Cygwin project ended their Herculean efforts to support those Windows versions.</p>
