I have a Windows 7 desktop and a MacBook Air. I prefer working in OSX, but my Windows 7 Core i7 processor w/ 6 GB of Memory / Intel solid state hard drive runs circles around my MacBook Air w/ Core2 Duo Processor and only 2 GB of ram.
Considering I like to work when I am on the road (carpool), I need an easy way to share files between my Windows Desktop and my MacBook Air laptop. Since I love Git, I will describe a simple way to do this.
1. Set up SSH Server on Windows 7

2. Set up Git
Launch cygwin and select git from the packages list and click next then finish.
3. Configure Git.
