I unify my windows home with my MSYS2 homes using mklink /D so that e.g. C:\msys32\home\ray is a symlink to C:\Users\ray .. I haven't run into any problems with this recently. msysgit didn't used to like cloning to a folder within a symlink folder, but MSYS2 git is fine with it.
Of course you'd need to copy the skeleton files into your Windows User folder before destroying the original MSYS2 $HOME folder. If there's any good reason not to do this then please tell!
