Seems that grep.exe is too outdated for some scripts: https://github.com/creationix/nvm/issues/75#issuecomment-13735767

Updating to a newer grep distro fixes the problem: https://github.com/creationix/nvm/issues/75#issuecomment-29054164

Seems other OSX & Linux don't have problems with the same scripts.

If the grep for the Git for Windows could be updated next, that would be helpful.

cheers
