Can anyone confirm or deny that:

1) Git malfunctions when current working directory is a remote share.

2) The error happens regardless of whether the remote share is:
   a) UNC path or
   b) mapped drive or even
   c) MKLINK link to the local c: drive.


Steps to Reproduce
------------------

1) a) Install http://repo.msys2.org/distrib/msys2-x86_64-latest.exe
   b) Update
   c) Make sure git is installed

2) Test git where current working directory is a remote share.
   Here cwd is r: (mapped to a remote share).

gdb@win57 MSYS /r/pkg/tools % git clone https://github.com/d5884/dot-emacs.git
                              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Cloning into 'dot-emacs'...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
fatal: remote did not send all necessary objects

(Moving this to the c: drive works -- but 100 times slower than on mac or 
linux!)
