After updating git from 2.10.0 to 2.11.0 when trying to push any changes to a repo located in a windows share, the following error occurs:
$ git push origin test

No error occurs if pushing to the same repo (a direct copy into a local directory) using 2.11.0.

Using `git fsck --full` in both 2.11.0 and 2.10.0, it doesn't reveal any additional problems.

I'm not sure if it's related but ` object directory /path/to/dir/objects does not exist` doesn't contain an expected second slash.
