The new release v0.8.5 should work on windows

The way you did it is fine. You can also skip the last step using the `dp/divergent-point` flag: - `gl branch -c my-local-branch -dp remote/the-remote-branch` (This will take care of...

I am going to label this issue as "docs". We should mention something about this on the documentation

Thank you for your feedback (and for reading the paper!). We have binary releases for Linux and Mac OS so that installing Gitless on those platforms is easy but we...
