28343	Update the Windows instructions in the docs to use py launcher rather than Git bash	Ramiro Morales	Ramiro Morales	"Python installations on Windows now:
* Ship the PEP397 `py` launcher which reduces the need to either having to add `python.exe` directory to PATH or having to always specify its full path. It also can detect  your Python's `python.exe`  even when it's invoked from inside a virtualenv.
* Have a better ''""Execute manage.py or runtest.py by simply running them""'' story when compared to previous Python versions, thanks partially to the above mentioned launcher.

This would allow us to reduce special casing of Windows when describing command line interactions. In particular IMHO the suggestion to use the Git for Windows Bash shell can be dropped from the contributing tutorial as it doesn't actually make things easier."
