-<em id="fn1">1</em>: The gcc4.8-libs package needs to be installed, because node

like `mintty` requires the usage of [winpty](https://github.com/rprichard/winpty)
for the tty channels to work correctly (e.g. `winpty node.exe script.js`).
In "Git bash" if you call the node shell alias (`node` without the `.exe`
extension), `winpty` is used automatically.
