To generate public key is very easy with 'putty'. You do not need the Unix for this.


Here you will find step-by-step manual.

        Gitorius experience
        
        
        usr:
        psw:
        
        CON: Needed to verify email by receiving an activation link that gave no feedback that the
            link had changed anything. It just put on back at the Gitorious home page. I logged in
            with my info and that worked. Poor human factors design.
        
        CON: It seems to need a public SSH Key. Not sure why but I can guess.
            When I went to the site ( ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub or ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub) which Gitorious suggested
            to obtain an SSH key I ended up at Google search list with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ssh-keygen
            as one of the options.
            Skimming that article forces me (back) into the Unix world which I dearly wish to avoid.
            Hence Gitorious is NOT platform independent but is heavily tied to Unix.
