Create a regular Windows share for the project directory on the box
you want to fetch from, ensure your user from another box is able to
successfully authenticate on that share, and then on that box add
the created share as a remote like this:

git remote add otherbox file:////thatbox/sharename

To fetch from that "otherbox" remote you then go like this:
1) Run Windows Explorer, navigate to \\thatbox\sharename,
   authenticate (if needed).  This will ensure all the next accesses
   will be automatically authenticated.
2) Do `git fetch otherbox`.

Of course, you can just attach that share as a network drive and then
modify the URL for your remote accordingly.

Note that since the repos are normal (non-bare) this will work well only
for fetches (see the FAQ for more info).
