[PATCH 23/40] Windows: Local clone must use the drive letter in absolute paths.

The default of pwd of MSYS's bash and /bin/pwd are to use /c/rest/of/path notation instead of c:/rest/of/path. But the former is not supported by programs that use the standard C runtime (instead of MSYS's runtime). Hence, we must make sure that only drive letter notations are generated by using pwd's -W option.
