Why not download the pre-compiled git 1.4.4.3 from cygwin, rather than
building it yourself?

I wonder if you are suffering from corrupted line endings.  If your
scripts end up with DOS line endings, but you execute them on a cygwin
binary mount, then bash will happily treat those \r as literal characters
rather than ignored whitespace (similarly to how bash behaves on Linux
with \r characters, except that on Linux, people tend to not use DOS line
endings).
