One does not set GIT_DIR=C:.git; it would be insane because it means ".git in
 an unpredictable directory somewhere on drive C". It would be great to
 support GIT_DIR=C:/.git

A bit off topic, but make_relative_path() may need more care for the
Windows port. I thought of making relative path between C:/foo and
D:/bar but it should work well for that case. //machine/share1/foo and
//machine/share2/bar may fail though.
