You don't want to use sshd. This program would be used to offer an SSH service. Just don't use it. It is absolutely unnecessary for regular Git usage.

@liaowuping, here it is. And that's just one of them—supposedly "the most true" these days. Other implementations do exist; please do your research.

JFTR, here you can download prebuilt packages. You'll see those "not production ready" red flags scattered there but fear not: a (free as in freedom) production-ready SSH server for Windows does not yet exist, but this does not mean whatever solution exist do not work; — on the contrary, they do.
