The win_git module I found here
turns out to not get very good. It stopped working after Git for Windows 2.36.1
and does not pull the latest changes like the builtin git module does. Here's
some explanation from the git role.

Pinned to 2.36.1 because the unofficial win_git module hangs when using
2.37.3, this is either a breaking change in 2.37.x or an incompatibility with
the win_git module. The git chocolatey package does not respect the version
argument and always installs the most recent version, so instead download the
installer from GitHub and install manually.
