git version 2.34.1.windows.1
Issue
Trying to create a new poetry project on windows 10 fails saying it hasn't found git.
I recently updated poetry from 1.1.13 to 1.3.1 by running poetry self update and copying ~\AppData\Roaming\pypoetry\venv\Scripts\poetry.exe to ~\AppData\Roaming\Python\Scripts\poetry.exe as suggested in #5377. That worked.
Then trying to create a new project via poetry new, poetry complains that it hasn't found a valid git executable, when git is in PATH, looking at the source code it trys to run %WINDIR%\\System32\\where.exe git, running this command in cmd finds git successfully.
Maybe poetry requires a newer version of git than 2.34 which I have, seeing that the latest is 2.39?
