I am using giflow on mac, it can be easily installed, but on windows, the git clone may fail. The problem is caused by the git protocal. Simply run git clone --recursive https://github.com/nvie/gitflow.git will fix this problem. But it may still fail when cloning the submodule. One simple solution is to modify the .gitmodule file and change the repo address to https://github.com/nvie/shFlags.git.

Eh, it seems it is caused by the corporate firewall. But why not just use https, that could be easier I think.
