Currently it isn’t easy to setup a github friendly test setup for hacking on redcar within windows. But it is possible. Here’s

do a gem install redcar

find where it installed it 
E:\>gem which redcar 
(checking gem redcar-0.3.2dev for redcar) 
E:/installs/ruby191p376/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/redcar-0.3.2dev/lib/ 
redcar.rb 

do a git clone "somewhere" 
cd into it (redcar)

copy the vendor and textmate directories from the installed gem into your git checked out version.

run ruby bin\redcar install

ruby bin\redcar should now work.
