It's fine if you don't have anything else installed already, but I have MSYS2 installed so it'd be nice if it were optional. Realistically an extra 50mb is not going to materially affect my life, but it's still aesthetically displeasing.
I agree - that's why I use the git package in MSYS2, which afaik is just as capable (and makes it much easier to use git with the full array of UNIX tools I might want to use that don't necessarily ship with Git for Windows).
