Invalid path

[joshmouch]

Clone this on a windows machine results in a path error message. I've checked out a lot of different repositories before, and this is the first time I've seen this one. I've tried on a few different windows machines with the same results.

Hi @joshmouch, thanks for reporting this. Just to be sure it was a Windows specific issue, I quickly tested on my Linux machine, and I can successfully clone the repo. I stumbled on this https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63727594/github-git-checkout-returns-error-invalid-path-on-windows, do you think that could address your issue for now? In the meantime, we will be looking for a cleaner fix.

Edit: I can confirm the issue on my Windows machine.
