Yes, but you still have to install MSysGit or whatever, which is a ridiculously huge download just to do version control requests. Plus, running the commands to generate public and private keys and all that junk is super counter-intuitive, and the default steps recommended on GitHub won't work on my work machine, as Cygwin can't write to the location it wants to create the key files, and once I got to that point, I just decided to use HG.
