Yes, all the time on some quite large projects and since a year now. No problem, quite stable. I'm using Git on Cygwin that I build myself almost every day. I'm also working with git-svn as many projects I'm working on are based on Subversion. At least Git Cygwin is a perfect solution on Windows.

I have never used MSysGit, so I won't comment.
