Git client bug with branch containing "."

What did you do before the bug happened? (Steps to reproduce your issue) On GitHub Enterprise server I have created a branch named: features/team1/feature./1.0/main in my repo. I tried to fetch the branch and switch to it.

What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior) I expected for branch to be switched to:features/team1/feature./1.0/main What happened instead? (Actual behavior) I got an error: fatal: cannot lock ref 'refs/heads/features/team1/feature./1.0/main': unable to create directory for .git/refs/heads/features/team1/feature./1.0/main What's different between what you expected and what actually happened? The branch did no switch. Anything else you want to add: From my analisys the problem is because my branch have "feature." in it and Windows can not create directory with "." at the end. Please review the rest of the bug report below. You can delete any lines you don't wish to share.
