Well, I, for one, will welcome a GitHub for Windows interface that can use native git commands. I've helped other developers install GitHub for Windows, and essentially you need to install the entire MSys Linux emulator for Windows in order to get ssh, key generation, and git. It's clumbsy and difficult. Now, the installation is fixed, and perhaps some of the other aspects can be smoothed.
Yep, it integrates fairly well with the Visual Studio team functionality now, but of course that is within the VS IDE. SourceTree on Windows is very good too, and you can do Git command line stuff from within that.
I understand the demo was done with the original Windows console. I can't believe they are not bringing out a new console along with bash.
Amen to that. The Windows 8 one is better in terms of allowing transparency and proper cut & paste but it's still nowhere near the richness of *nix consoles.
