Windows' network drive concept is a quite useful and versatile one. Once authenticated, one can even change the working directory to a network drive (cd \\server\share, works in PowerShell and Git Bash).

Some users want to have their Git repositories there, and with these patches, that works, even.

This is yet another patch series in the seemingly endless stream of Git for Windows patches.

Johannes Schindelin (3):
  setup_git_directory(): handle UNC paths correctly
  Fix .git/ discovery at the root of UNC shares
