No, I don't, but I've seen this particular issue on Stack Overflow
probably four or five times and answered it each time.  I didn't think
to look at the Git for Windows issue tracker, since I just considered it
a difference between how Windows and Linux report symbolic links, not
something that could theoretically be fixed.  Obviously I was wrong.

If I see more Windows-related problems show up on Stack Overflow that
aren't on the issue tracker, I'll send folks your way to report them.  I
want to assure you that I'm not intentionally depriving you of the
information you need to fix problems; in this case, I just didn't think
of it as a thing that could be fixed.
