Is there any way this is bad? I am honestly having a hard time not getting thrilled over it. I want to be cynical and worried, but hot damn this seems awesome. Getting that alphabet soup of utilities to be useful natively on Windows without Cygwin or `git bash` is a pain (and usually lags out of date; nevermind the startup lag too).

Just having curl, md5sum, and apt alone is a thrill and a half!




Totally agree. I use git for windows with optional unix tools. But having this built in is quite amazing.
