There seems to be another issue, which may or may not being related:
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/979

I think this is the same issue. I've posted my trace command output there as
It might be more appropriate:
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/979#issuecomment-264816175

Thanks for the trace.
I think that the problem comes from the "cwd", when a UNC name is used.

cd //SERVER/share/somedir
does not work under Windows, the is no chance to change into that directory.
Does anybody know out of his head why and since when we change the directory
like this ?
Or "git bisect" may help.

For the record, Hannes Sixt came up with a patch that fixes #979, and
which already made it into Git for Windows' `master`.

Ciao,
