You should change your configuration to match the needs of Apache 2.4:

<Directory "C:\git-server"> Options +ExecCGI Require all granted </Directory>

weird though. the document (link) states that there is a compatible module access_compat.load but even with this enabled you still need to modify the directory statement. (at least in my case.) else it wont work!

I followed this tutorial that noted the pre-2.4 way; your answer, as well as the remark about copying libiconv-2.dll to git-core from that tutorial got my setup ready to use.

That didn't help in my case (Also I'm under Linux). Instead I had to use the <Files> and the path to the executable, not the path to the HTTP (GIT) data.
