1.1. Installation on Windows

On Windows, some of the installation steps are bit more work, especially adding Gitify to your PATH variable.

This question on Stack Overflow explains the procedure of editing the PATH variable on Windows 7: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7307548/how-to-access-php-with-the-command-line-on-windows/7307581#7307581

It's common on Windows that you need to add both PHP and the Gitify executables to the PATH.

Common locations of the PHP executable on windows include:

c:\php\php.exe
c:\php5\php.exe
c:\windows\php.exe
c:\program files\php\php.exe
c:\wamp\bin\php\php5\php.exe
c:\xampp\php\php.exe
<ampps root>\php\php.exe
