That message means that getcwd() is failing. If it were happening in one
place, I'd say to check if there is something funny with your directory
(e.g., bad permissions or something). But if it's happening anywhere, it
sounds like there is some fundamental incompatibility between the build
of Git and your system.

It sounds like you're on a Windows system, and the problem may be
system-specific. You might try asking at the specific Git for Windows
list:

  https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!forum/git-for-windows

though many of those people do frequent this list, too.
