FYI, I'm a newbie to this site. I attended Jessica's open source tutorial run this weekend, and disocvered a minor issue which I thought I'd report. I was using windows during the course. The course recommended git-bash as a cli. The mission page https://openhatch.org/missions/diffpatch/single_patch (click hint level high) The hint text recommends using "wget" to download the files of interest. git-bash on windows does not include wget. I just checked the three machines I have. None has wget. git-bash does have curl which provideds the same functionality. I suggest the hint changed to use curl. One can also download and install wget, which I did at the tutorial except that is time taken away from the tutorial.

I noticed that this was also an issue on OSX 10.6 - 10.8.
