+Git has native support for [Windows on Arm](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/arm/overview). Starting with version 2.47.1, an official installer is available. 
+
+In addition to Windows laptops, Windows on Arm instances are available with Microsoft Azure. For further information, see [Deploy a Windows on Arm virtual machine on Microsoft Azure](/learning-paths/cross-platform/woa_azure/).
+
+## How do I download and install Git for Windows on Arm?
+
+Git releases are available in [GitHub releases](https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/).
+
+Use a browser to download the desired release file. The Git releases for Windows on Arm have `arm64.exe` in the filename.
+
+You can also download from a Windows PowerShell with the following command:
+
+```command
+curl https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/download/v2.47.1.windows.1/Git-2.47.1-arm64.exe -o Git-2.47.1-arm64.exe
+```
+
+Once you have downloaded Git, run the installer `.exe` file on a Windows on Arm machine. 
+
+The installer starts. 
+
+Click Next to acknowledge the GNU General Public License.
+
+Set the destination location or accept the default location and click Next.
+
+Continue to click Next for any configuration settings. You can accept all defaults if you are unsure of specific settings.
+
+At the end of the install process you see the screen below indicating setup has finished installing Git:
