I got problem when doing "make install". The error message is:
install -d -m 755 '/usr/local/bin'
git: 'installation' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.
./install: line 4: Normally: command not found
./install: line 5: will: command not found
./install: line 6: to: command not found
./install: line 8: $: command not found
./install: line 11: syntax error near unexpected token .'

This is due to the case insensitivity of Windows OS if you have "./" in your PATH. Cygwin use the INSTALL file in the git source tree instead of /usr/bin/install. We have to rename some "INSTALL" files in the source tree to other file name. This is mentioned by http://zengrong.net/post/1817.htm
