I wonder if the problem exists on Mac OS X too. From what I heard, it
does not treat ':' as a normal symbol.
The short answer is that Mac OS X's POSIX implementation works as
expected (internally replacing ':' with '/') without issue.
Furthermore, my POSIX-like environment Lamp (Lamp ain't Mac POSIX)
that runs on classic Mac OS (much in the manner of Cygwin) provides
the same Unix filing behavior, so Mac filing syntax isn't an issue in
running git on Mac OS 9. (I'm sure everybody's breathing a HUGE sigh
of relief at this news...)
