As far as I know, git --daemon is explicitly not supported in Windows
environments.  At least that was the case not too long ago.

If you're running git --daemon because of its efficiency, have you
considered the fact that [smart-http][] is almost as efficient?  That
should work in any http server, a plethora of which exist for Windoze.

Also, file system cloning is very efficient so if you're trying to
share a repository you could in theory share over the file system
using filesystem permissions to allow for cloning.

Just food for thought.
