In 1e64d18 (mingw: do resolve symlinks in getcwd()) a problem was
introduced that causes git for Windows to stop working with certain
mapped network drives (in particular, drives that are mapped to
locations with long path names). Error message was "fatal: Unable to
read current working directory: No such file or directory". Present
change fixes this issue as discussed in
#2480

Thanks for taking the time to contribute to Git!

Those seeking to contribute to the Git for Windows fork should see
http://gitforwindows.org/#contribute on how to contribute Windows specific
enhancements.

If your contribution is for the core Git functions and documentation
please be aware that the Git community does not use the github.com issues
or pull request mechanism for their contributions.

Instead, we use the Git mailing list (git@vger.kernel.org) for code and
documenatation submissions, code reviews, and bug reports. The
mailing list is plain text only (anything with HTML is sent directly
to the spam folder).

Nevertheless, you can use GitGitGadget (https://gitgitgadget.github.io/)
to conveniently send your Pull Requests commits to our mailing list.

Please read the "guidelines for contributing" linked above!
