+This looks similar to [[bugs/git-annex_fails_to_initialize_under_Windows]], which was solved by upgrading to a newer version of msysgit.
+
+git 1.7.9 is extremely old (years). Probably the empty commit that is done when switching to direct mode, precisely to avoid this problem, fails, because the pre-built git-annex for windows is targeting a modern version of git, from msysgit.
