I noticed that the lastest version of git has a windows version.
Does this version still use MSYS/Cygwin, or has a more native port been created?
That is to say, does the current windows version of git, still have numerous shell scripts that it depends upon, or has the code been all ported to native executables.
Thanks

The msysGit-fullinstall-1.7.3.1-preview20101002.exe full installer will install everything you need to compile Git on Windows.
That will allow you to see what exact libraries it needs.
As the wiki page on "Working on Git" shows, it is still based on mingw:
'mingw' is the repository Hannes Sixt set up starting with Dscho's rudimentary (and only half-working, but self-hosting nevertheless) MinGW port.
'4msysgit' (the default remote) is our fork of mingw, which basically has fixes we needed for msysGit.

I think it is a hard thing to do as nobody was able to help me, if anyone know how to install atom on Bash on Ubuntu on Windows, it would be greatly appreciated.
You can install it as you would on any Ubuntu - from its README.md:
Debian Linux (Ubuntu)
Atom is only available for 64-bit Linux systems.
Download atom-amd64.deb from the Atom releases page.
Run sudo dpkg --install atom-amd64.deb on the downloaded package.
Launch Atom using the installed atom command.
The thing is - it won't run. Bash on Ubuntu on Windows is highly experimental yet, so graphic applications won't work. I've tried on a VM, and I get a libXss.so not found error. You may be able to fix that issue by setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, probably, but you'll hit a bug in the implementation sooner than later.
Anyway, atom runs natively on Windows, so I'm not sure why would you want to install it there.

I want to ask, if I format my computer (currently running windows10 genuine) and use some other OS for a while and then again install windows10, will I be able to reactivate my windows with the same key which is working currently on my pc ?
That should work just fine, provided you can install the same version. A key for Home won't work on Pro and vice versa, and there are also OEM versions and Volume License versions, so make sure which exact version you have.
If you have an installation CD or an ISO for the right edition (the one you have the key for) you'll be fine. You can re-install from that CD multiple times.
If Windows came preinstalled, you'd better make an image of the hard drive which you can restore later.

I am new to kernel development. Currently I am running Ubuntu 13.04. My current kernel is 3.8.0-23-generic.
My question is, do I need to install exact 3.8.0-23-generic source code to do development and see the results?
In Ubuntu, to obtain the source for the currently running kernel you can use the command below:
apt-get source linux-image-$(uname -r)
See here for detail.
There are detailed instructions for building a kernel in Ubuntu here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile
There is a concept called kernel version magic which ensures the correct version of module is inserted in to kernel always. so you need to install exact 3.8.0-23-generic source code for inserting your modules.
http://www.tldp.org/LDP/lkmpg/2.6/html/x380.html for some guidance about version magic.
Suppose you want to do development only in 2.6.X, then simply download that 2.6.x from kernel.org and follow the link http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/compiling-linux-kernel-26.html

I can't figure out where my Mac's apache installation files are (source files).
Doing which apachectl or which ab just shows me /usr/sbin/ and not the original sources, do they even exist on the system or is it just the compiled binaries?
The end goal for me is to upgrade from 2.2.2 that I have no to the latest version.
How can I do this? or can I blow out what I have now and install it via homebrew.
Youll find the headers in /usr/include/apache2. However i wouldnt upgrade they systems apache. I would use Homebrew, MacPorts, Fink, or a manual installation. This way it doesnt get blown away by a system update or break a dependency somewhere. Its probably unlikely either of those would happen, but you never know 100%.

New, resurrected project site (Win7 compability and more!): http://sshwindows.sourceforge.net
1st January 2012
OpenSSH for Windows 5.6p1-2 based release created!!
Happy New Year all! Since COpSSH has started charging I've resurrected this project
Updated all binaries to current releases
Added several new supporting DLLs as required by all executables in package
Renamed switch.exe to bash.exe to remove the need to modify and compile mkpasswd.exe each build
Please note there is a very minor bug in this release, detailed in the docs. I'm working on fixing this, anyone who can code in C and can offer a bit of help it would be much appreciated
Cygwin can give you this functionality.
Try WinScp
Give http://www.privateshell.com/ a shot.
