I wish I could report success like you.

Using 20120123, just printing my prompt, which runs "git rev-parse"
and "git branch", I saw this (pd is an alias for pushd):

This problem is killing me.  I'm currently looking msysgit + GnuWin32
because I just can't take the crashes of bash.exe and git.exe anymore.
In my testing, so far, I've never seen msysgit or the bash that comes
with it crash.  Why is it that cygwin has this problem but msysgit
does not?  It's an honest question and I'm not trying to be
provocative.  I've been a cygwin user since before Red Hat acquired
them, and the above statement makes me really sad.
