This is a patch to support older Windows versions (e.g. Windows 7) better.

I know, I know, Windows 7's End-Of-Life is now less than half a year away,
but... I am unsure just how long Git for Windows will support Windows 7
beyond its officially-supported life; We still support Windows Vista, after
all, which has been "sun-set" over two years ago.
