Installing Drush on Win 7 so it runs in a Git Bash Window
All,
I noticed that quite a few people in the Drupal Easy Career Starter Program could not get drush to work in their git bash windows.
This is because the software was not installed with the correct option! When you install drush using the Drush 5.7 Windows Installer, the attached screen will appear.
If you notice, there are three boxes that are "X" out. The second box / line is titled "Register Environmental Variables". You should un "X" this box. When you click on this box, you will receive a drop down menu. Choose "Will be installed on local hard drive".

Add an Aegir instance to git for ide to development server communication
My dev environment differs from that of most Drupalees. I have a webserver running on Ubuntu but my IDE is on Windows 7 (Eclipse with Egit).
I understand Mig5's workflow as illustrated by Adrian Simmons.
I understand the difference between platforms and instances.
I have succesfully installed gitolite on my development server.
I have put my build/make files under git version control. I use these files to deploy platforms with Aegir.
