Then, I guess you'd need to build yourself. And I'd strongly
recommend against that. The times I've build git annex the outcome
has been fully stochastic, depending on whether the Haskell packages
happen to fit together at that instance in time.
However, have you checked out the Windows support page?

Just use the gui (git annex webapp) and go through Joey's page. He's providing
tutorials.
I'm still having problems with some files that it won't swallow;
because of encoding of file names, I think.

There's android support but last I checked no fancy gui.
