That's not a bug: you can't have "|" in the name of a file stored on a Windows filesystem (NTFS or FAT) -- see the list of reserved characters here [1]. As to bug reporting, Git devs prefer bugs to be reported by posting a message to the main Git mailing list; how to properly reach it is explained in [2] but before you do so I must repeat that what you see is not a bug and certainly won't be fixed. P.S. You should also keep in mind that Git for Windows is still a separate port, not just a build of the "stock" Git, so they carry an extensive set of patches on top of the stock Git, and most Windows-specific bugs should be discussed with the GfW folks, not with upstream devs (which mostly use Git on POSIX systems anyway). The GfW project has its own mailing list (the preferred venue of reporting problems, see [2]) and the project's entry on github has its issue tracker [3]. And while we're on it, Thomas could you please update your wonderful gist with this additional pointers regarding GfW bug tracking? 1. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365247#naming_conventions 2. https://gist.github.com/tfnico/4441562 3. https://github.com/msysgit/git/issues -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
