title: Using GIT commands in a Perl Script on Windows
body: <p>I'm still fairly new to GIT and how it works but I know it is possible to execute git commands in a windows command prompt. I've been able to set up a remote git repo on a linux machine and successfully push to it. </p>
  
  <p>What I'm trying to do now is create a perl script to do exactly the same thing however when I run it, it comes back with:</p>
  
  <p><em>'git' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file.</em></p>
  
  <p>I've got the PATH environment variable set up correctly (since I can run git commands outside of the script just fine) so not sure why it's coming back with that error.  </p>
  
  <p>Any help or guidance on this would be greatly appreciated! </p>
  
  <p>Thanks! </p>
