+##### A note on environment variables in Windows #####
+In many of the npm scripts (and examples above), things are run like
+`BUILD_ONLY=true npm install`. This sets the `BUILD_ONLY` environment variable
+to true for the duration of that command. This doesn't work in windows, however
+there is a solution. You can use cmd to call a command inside of cmd (very meta)
+with the variable set, and it only lasts for the duration of the inner call to cmd.
+So for the above example, you would run `cmd /C "set BUILD_ONLY=true && npm install"`.

+A common issue is with NodeGit not functioning properly inside of
+[nw.js](http://github.com/nwjs/nw.js) applications. Because NodeGit
 is a native module, it has to be rebuilt for node-webkit using
-[nw-gyp](http://github.com/rogerwang/nw-gyp). By default, nodegit will look in the root package's package.json for an `engines` property, and within look for a `nw.js` property (or a `node-webkit` if the prior isn't found) that holds a specific version of nw.js. The value of this property is what will get passed as the `--target` argument to `nw-gyp configure`.

-### Version incompatibiltiy ###
-Prior to version 0.2.6, nodegit used [nan](http://github.com/rvagg/nan) v1.4.3. As of 0.2.6, nodegit uses nan v1.5.1 to provide support for io.js. Unfortunately, this breaks some nw.js compatability. With nw.js 0.12+, the name was changed to nw.js from node-webkit. The alpha currently still breaks with nodegit due to the nan update, but should be fixed in the final v0.12.0 release. Åpplications using previous versions of node webkit have 2 options:
-1) Use an older version (v0.2.4 or earlier) of nodegit
-2) Use [npm shrinkwrap](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/shrinkwrap) to force nodegit to use nan v1.4.3. Since the binary always recompiles when being used with nw.js, you shouldnt have to do anything else to make sure it works. As of nodegit v0.2.6, the change to nan v1.4.3 doesn't cause any problems.
