Linux master, windows slave, slave doesn't get the correct git path

[chbr...@lltech.fr]

Hello,

After deciding to give Git plugin 2.0 a try, see issues and roll back to 1.1.26, I can't make my slave work correctly. It's a windows 7 box, with latest msysgit installed (1.8.3). Jenkins has 2 paths for git, /opt/bitnami/git/bin/git for the master's git, and "C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\git.exe" for the slave's git. Those two are specified in Jenkins' configuration.

In slave's configuration I set Git's path to the correct one.

However the slave issues the following:

 I found the issue, I didn't set the correct Git's binary in job's configuration, it was set to master's path. Setting it to slave's path fixed it.
