(When Cygwin's build of git is used to make the clone, it puts the
slashes the other way around in .git/config, which also doesn't work
for git-annex.)
+* Does not work with Cygwin's build of git (that git does not consistently
+ support use of DOS style paths, which git-annex uses on Windows).
+ Must use the upstream build of git for Windows.
* test suite doesn't work
* Bad file locking, it's probably not safe to run more than one git-annex
process at the same time on Windows.
