Hi, I verified this behavior on Git 1.7.8 and 1.8.3. My D:\src folder is a symlink to another folder in my Google Drive, created by Windows command mklink /d d:\src "d:\Google Drive\src" D:\src>git clone https://github.com/jlewallen/jenkins-hipchat-plugin.git Cloning into 'jenkins-hipchat-plugin'... fatal: Invalid symlink 'D:/src': Function not implemented The same error is shown with the bash prompt too: $ git clone https://github.com/jlewallen/jenkins-hipchat-plugin.git Cloning into 'jenkins-hipchat-plugin'... fatal: Invalid symlink 'd:/src': Function not implemented If I go one directory below (D:\src\somethingelse) the command works fine but not at the root of the symlink directory.
