![]() Our CMake configuration generates not only build definitions, but also install definitions: After building Git using `msbuild git.sln`, the built artifacts can be installed via `msbuild INSTALL.vcxproj`. To specify _where_ the files should be installed, the `-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<path>` option can be used when running CMake. However, this process would really only install the files that were just built. On Windows, we need more than that: We also need the `.dll` files of the dependencies (such as libcurl). The `vcpkg` ecosystem, which we use to obtain those dependencies, can be asked to install said `.dll` files really easily, so let's do that. This requires more than just the built `vcpkg` artifacts in the CI build definition; We now clone the `vcpkg` repository so that the relevant CMake scripts are available, in particular the ones related to defining the toolchain.
