You can do everything on Windows. Here's roughly how you can build the
git code (you'll need a working chicken -- I'll assume it's under
c:/Chicken):
$ git clone git://code.call-cc.org/chicken-core
$ cd chicken-core
$ make PLATFORM=mingw PREFIX=c:/chicken-master
CHICKEN=c:/Chicken/bin/chicken.exe boot-chicken
$ make PLATFORM=mingw PREFIX=c:/chicken-master CHICKEN=./chicken-boot.exe
spotless install check
Best wishes.
Mario
