npm ERR! No git binary found in $PATH

I can’t seem to get zenbot to install I am new to node.js, so please be kind. I am getting all kinds of error I do have git installed. I followed the install instructions and I really don’t know where to start. I am a Java and C programming trying to cut my teeth on something new and learn through the bumps and bruises.

C:\zenbot>npm install
