 To get access to gzip/tar, I downloaded those packages. You can also just download all the packages.
 All the packages get installed by default to [[%ProgramFiles%\GnuWin32\]], and the .exe files reside in [[%ProgramFiles%\GnuWin32\bin\]]

1. Subversion Client
  I downloaded mine from [[http://www.open.collab.net/downloads/subversion/]].

1. Set up some scripts to help yourself.
  Make a windows shell script to setup your environment.
  Make a file named something like [[%USERPROFILE%\my_sage_env.cmd]].
  A good one to get started is something like:
{{{
echo off
cls
echo "Running CMD w/ special environment variables set..."
set PATH=%PATH%;%ProgramFiles%\GnuWin32\bin;%ProgramFiles%\CollabNet Subversion Client
echo on
}}}
  Make a shortcut to [[%SystemRoot%\System32\cmd.exe]]. Then right click, select properties and on the Shortcut Tab, edit the Target field to:
{{{
D:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /K %USERPROFILE%\my_sage_env.cmd
}}}

1. Set up some scripts to help yourself.

  • Make a windows shell script to setup your environment.

    Make a file named something like %USERPROFILE%\my_sage_env.cmd. A good one to get started is something like: 

echo off

echo "Running CMD w/ special environment variables set..."
set PATH=%PATH%;%ProgramFiles%\GnuWin32\bin;%ProgramFiles%\CollabNet Subversion Client
echo on

D:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /K %USERPROFILE%\my_sage_env.cmd
