Please consider mentioning in the commit message that on other
platforms this is a noop. I was scrolling through the whole patch,
skipping over the Windows-specific parts, to see how you did it on
Linux, only to find the above do-nothing loop. It was anticlimactic :)
Why is it a noop on other platforms? I suspect that (since your main
focus is supporting Windows devs using Git on Windows) it's along the
lines of "I just didn't want to bother, and left it as future work for
anyone interested", which a perfectly valid reason in my book.
However, if you did look into it, and found some major difficulties or
downright showstoppers, then that might be worth mentioning.
(Portability? I would expect that it would need a bunch of '#elif
defined(...)')
