The fine points on why installing it onto your computer is not a 
distribution are just lost on me.

Besides, if you do not like that our installer shows the GPL, just go and 
make your own (but be sure to shell out money to your lawyer of choice to 
confirm that the GPL allows you to do that).

The Git installer of msysGit will always show the GPL, and have the user 
accept it.

'nuff said,
