I just tried building QGIS for the first time on Windows using the
instruction from here.
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/INSTALL.md#4142-compiling-qgis-with-msvc

I was able to successfully build it, but needed to make some modifications
from the instructions.

1. I can download this installer, but it ultimately fails.
Download the free (as in free beer) Community installer
https://download.microsoft.com/download/D/2/3/D23F4D0F-BA2D-4600-8725-6CCECEA05196/vs_community_ENU.exe

I had to log into a Microsoft account, locate the installer and then
download that package from there.

2. This command fails
git clone git://github.com/qgis/QGIS.git

it was resolved by
git clone https://github.com/qgis/QGIS.git
