### Please describe the problem.

The windows build seems to be hardcoded to finding git at c:\program files\Git\
I have git in another directory. Git-annex does not find it.

### What steps will reproduce the problem?

Install git-annex. Run the webapp.
Get error "Internal Server Error 
You need to install git in order to use git-annex!"

### What version of git-annex are you using? On what operating system?

5.20140817-g71c2250.
Windows XP.

### Please provide any additional information below.

[[!format sh """
# If you can, paste a complete transcript of the problem occurring here.
# If the problem is with the git-annex assistant, paste in .git/annex/daemon.log


# End of transcript or log.
