Setup should suggest installing git?

Perhaps I have missed something, but the setup instructions (https://github.com/swcarpentry/r-novice-gapminder/blob/main/setup.md) do not seem to mention installing Git. On Windows, that means that the RStudio terminal will use the Windows command prompt, which does not have ls
or wc
available (and these commands are used in e.g. Challenge 4 of project intro).
Should the setup ask users to install git prior to RStudio, so that the RStudio setup can find git and use the git bash shell on Windows?
