From: Erik Faye-Lund <kusmab...@googlemail.com>

On Windows, absolute paths might start with a DOS drive prefix,
which this check fails to recognize.

Unfortunately, we cannot simply use the file_name_is_absolute
helper in File::Spec::Functions, because Git for Windows has an
MSYS-based Perl, where this helper doesn't grok DOS
drive-prefixes.

So let's manually check for these in that case, and fall back to
the File::Spec-helper on other platforms (e.g Win32 with native
Perl)

Here's a patch that we've been running with a variation of in
Git for Windows for a while. That version wasn't quite palatable,
as it recognized DOS drive-prefixes on all platforms.
