For Linux, you should choose:
31+
* `linux-386` for 32-bit Intel/AMD processors
32+
* `linux-amd64` for 64-bit Intel/AMD processors
33+
* 'linux-arm64' for 64-bit ARM systems like a Raspberry PI 4
34+
* `linux-arm-5` and `linux-arm-6` are for other versions of the ARM processor
35+
36+
For Windows, you should chose:
37+
* `windows-4.0-386` for 32-bit Intel/AMD processors
38+
* `windows-4.0-amd64` for 64-bit Intel/AMD processors
39+
* `gogit-windows` if you want to use the built-in (Go-based) git client; otherwise you will need to install Git.
40+

*Note that `windows-4.0` refers to Windows NT+, which is all modern versions of Windows.*
