I would not use the _same_ repository from both Windows and Linux, but 
rather fetch/push from/to the Windows partition.

I am using Cygwin to compile git, and I have a USB Stick with FAT32 on 
which I push regularly. Important: since Linux is more intelligent about 
permissions, I had to initialize the repos with Windows.

To get started compiling, you might want to use the autoconf script.
