Bower install command not working on windows

This is my output from running bower:

PS F:\tmp\ember3\demo2> bower install ember
bower cloning git://github.com/components/ember
bower cached git://github.com/components/ember
bower fetching ember
PS F:\tmp\ember3\demo2>

After running the above command, I see nothing generated/copied in the 'demo2' directory. I only have the .bowerrc file in the 'demo2' directory:

PS F:\tmp\ember3\demo2> ls


    Directory: F:\tmp\ember3\demo2


Mode                LastWriteTime     Length Name

-a---          6/1/2013   2:23 AM         81 .bowerrc


PS F:\tmp\ember3\demo2> cat .bowerrc
{
        "name": "demo2",
        "version": "0.0.1",
    "directory": "bower_components"
}

PS F:\tmp\ember3\demo2>

ok it seems the issue was the git was not on my 'path'

Try to run bower from Git Bash. In windows bower doesn't work from command prompt.

install node.js then use node package manager, npm to install bower via "npm install -g bower" after that you can now user bower via "bower install package-name"
