1854c70bf9 Replace all page contents with links to the new location
This trick was performed via:

  git ls-files \*.md |
  while read f
  do
    pr_url=https://github.com/git-for-windows/git-for-windows.github.io/pull/59
    url=https://gitforwindows.org/${f%.md}
    echo "This wiki page [has been migrated]($pr_url) to a new location: [$url]($url)" >"$f"
  done

There are two pages where this does not make sense, `0.-Index` and
`_Footer`, which will be handled in the next commit.

9786dc0b7f Use the new homepage consistently
We now use the domain gitforwindows.org, which is much easier to
remember and quicker to type.

af7c6c8e6f Use the preferred spelling of the MSYS2 project
While it does not make sense to pretend that the project name is a
four-letter acronym (it really stands for "Minimal System"), it is
definitely not worth an issue to fight over. We have much bigger fish
to fry.

26084d638f Move the remaining TODOs to the 'Building Git' page
We should really describe how to use Eclipse or MSVC in that page...

e6d5b42457 Rename the 'net' installer into 'SDK' installer
Much better to state the purpose than the means to achieve it.

f761932ff1 Fix: the building part was already described very well. Probably the intention of the latest edits was to help updating to the newest Git version. 2015-04-06 22:26:28 +02:00
