Install Git On Windows With PowerShell
I like Git and here's a PowerShell script that I use to download and install Git on my Windows based development machines.
#
# Sample usage:
#
# Install git:
# PS> install-git

function global:install-git {
install-file 'http://msysgit.googlecode.com/files/Git-1.6.4-preview20090730.exe'
}
function global:install-file([string] $urlPath) {
$filename = download-file($urlPath)
invoke-item $filename
}
function global:download-file([string] $urlPath) {
$urlSplit = $urlPath.split('/')
$filename = (Resolve-Path .).ToString() + '' + $urlSplit[$urlSplit.length - 1]
$webclient = New-Object "System.Net.WebClient"
$webclient.DownloadFile($urlPath, $filename)
return $filename
}
