Looks like the code for discoverGitSystemConfig is her:
https://github.com/eclipse/jgit/blob/master/org.eclipse.jgit/src/org/eclipse/jgit/util/FS.java
and that it basically calls discoverGitExe() and then calls Git with "config --system --edit" to see what comes back.
discoverGitExe is specific for each file system type. For Win32 it checks the Path:
https://github.com/eclipse/jgit/blob/master/org.eclipse.jgit/src/org/eclipse/jgit/util/FS_Win32.java
So if Git is in your PATH environment variable then it should find it automatically and pick up your standard settings.
