Why on hell do you suggest to use --no-check-certificatewith wget when downloading an installation script, which is immediately executed after it is downloaded? (Windows instructions)
This opens a 🚪 for everyone wanting to install malware on your system or modify git flow or so...

I mean it is already only HTTPS, which is used for verifying the files there, so one should not disable the verification of the certificate now to make it even worse.
