| 71 | +## Git |
| 72 | + |
| 73 | +The entire ROOT source can be obtained from our public Git repository: |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +~~~ |
| 76 | +git clone https://github.com/root-project/root.git |
| 77 | +~~~ |
| 78 | +The release specific tag can be obtained using: |
| 79 | +~~~ |
| 80 | +cd root |
| 81 | +git checkout -b v6-36-00-rc1 v6-36-00-rc1 |
| 82 | +~~~ |

| 84 | +See [instructions to build from source](../../install/#build-from-source){:target="\_blank"}. |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | +## Windows |
| 87 | + |
| 88 | +Windows 10/7/... are supported. We offer two packaging types: |
| 89 | + |
| 90 | + * **exe**: a regular Windows installer package also setting up the required environment variables. With uninstall via "Control Panel" / "Add or Remove Programs". Simply download and start. You can double-click ROOT to run it; ROOT files get registered with Windows. |
| 91 | + * **tar**: unpack e.g. with [7zip](https://www.7-zip.org). Start ROOT in a Microsoft Visual Studio Prompt (in Start / Programs / Microsoft Visual Studio / Tools). If you installed ROOT to `C:\root` then call `C:\root\bin\thisroot.bat` before using ROOT to set up required environment variables. Call instead `thisroot.ps1` if you run from a `powershell` (the default terminal in Visual Studio Code). |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +### Important installation notes |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | + * You must download the binary built with the exact same version of Visual Studio (and Python) than the one installed on your system. |
| 96 | + * Don't forget to select the component “Desktop development with C++" when running the Visual Studio Installer. |
| 97 | + * Do not untar in a directory with a name containing blank characters. |
| 98 | + * Take the release version if performance matters. |
| 99 | + * If you want to debug your code you need the ROOT debug build (you cannot mix release / debug builds due to a Microsoft restriction). |
