Install git flow on windows 7

I am trying to install got flow on windows 7.

I have used this page - https://github.com/nvie/gitflow/wiki/Windows So have installed Cygwin.

I have put the command into the command prompt/git bash that its says to for git flow $ wget -q -O - --no-check-certificate https://github.com/nvie/gitflow/raw/develop/contrib/gitflow-installer.sh | bash

I then get this error:bash: wget: command not found

I have googled this and cannot find the answer. I am quite new to command line so only know the basics.

I believe i have to install the package wget

How do I do this, and which directory do I need to be in in the git bash/command prompt/console thing? (the my_cool_project) one created in this course or another one on my pc?

Many thanks in advanced!
