[PATCH] On Cygwin support both UNIX and DOS style path-names

In fact Cygwin supports both, so make Git agree with this. The failing case is when a file is committed in a sub-dir of the repository using a log message from a file specified with a DOS style path-name. To reproduce:

   $ cd src
   $ git commit -F c:\tmp\log.txt file.c
   fatal: could not read log file 'src/c:\tmp\log.txt': No such file \
   or directory.
