No, I don't believe so. However, sometimes people get busy and things fall through the cracks, so pinging like you did is a good idea.

It looks like you're pushing to a UNC path, and I don't know how that works with Cygwin. It may be that it used to work, but something changed in Cygwin or Git.

I've CC'd the Git for Windows maintainer (Dscho) in case he has some ideas. While he doesn't package the Cygwin Git, he might know what's going on. I'm not very familiar with Cygwin at all, not being a Windows user. You could also try reporting this to the Cygwin bug tracker and see if they can figure things out.
