Hmm - In my specific case - and numerous coworkers, my experience at large and
small companies is this:
Only a very few files are synced between the network and my local machine.
For me - my "~/.ssh" directory is *NOT* synchronized, if it was - I would not
be here talking about it.
And turning on SYNC often greatly destroys unix-like "chmod" settings on
windows machines.

Bottom line - in my case:
Using "Git Bash" - aka: https://git-scm.com/
Both Win 7 and Win 10
I'm not totally sure the difference between "git bash" which I get from here:
"https://git-scm.com"
What I know as "MingGW" = it seems to be very much so identical to "git-bash"
but there are little "got-yas" Grrr...
That said, if I set the variable "${HOME}" I expect it to be used. If not that,
then at least something like "${SSH_CONFIG_DIR}" would be an alternate

See the *LAST* entry - the poster refers to "Z:\" as his network domain policy
That's my example
