Hi Konrad,
That would be indeed easier. The wiki explicitly states to use
<https://wiki.qt.io/Building_Qt_6_from_Git>:
>/A Perl version which does not need a registration and also provides a
zip file instead an installer is StrawberryPerl
<https://strawberryperl.com/>. /
but let's go back to the discussion about why we need perl in the first
place and why wikis are bad 😁
Cheers 👋,
Eli

Is this new? Because my installation does not have it. I just
checked, and the folder my env path points to only contains git.exe,
git-gui.exe, and no Perl.
This is not new - it has (to my knowledge) always been there.
If you check the Git installation folder you'll find a .../usr
directory and a .../usr/bin inside - that one contains Perl as well as
hundreds of other Unix utilities. If you add this to your PATH
variable you will have access to all of them.
Git on Windows replicates a bit of the Unix hierarchy in its
installation folder. But it only exposes a small subset to the Windows
command line through the .../bin or .../cmd folders.
