Cygwin (and therefore MSYS2 runtime, and therefore the Bash used to run the test script) can use those filenames all right, but Git cannot. So even testing whether you could write an illegal file name via shell script is *not* enough to determine whether the file system supports funny characters. As far as I can tell from a *really* cursory glance, this is the only affected test case. Apparently your prereq catches, somehow, on Windows: 2018-04-18T11:12:43.0459702Z Your filesystem does not allow \ and " in filenames. 2018-04-18T11:12:43.0459823Z skipped: complete files - C-style escapes in ls-files output (missing FUNNYNAMES_BS_DQ) Ciao, Dscho
