very important, and VERY ANNOYING BUG HERE. If you type in "git init new_project/" like you can in Linux, it will NOT accept it with the slash on the end. this should be corrected!!!!!!!

52,175 PointsThe only way I can think of the above command not working is if git was installed on windows in a way that you didn't have git commands available to the windows command line. If that is the case, then using the git bash program which you can find inside of the git folder, should be used in place of the windows command line.
If using a Mac or Linux the command should work, at least with my testing of it.
