A test case introduced by ae454f61 (Add tests for wildcard "path vs ref"
disambiguation) allocates a file named '*.c'. This does not work on
Windows, because the OS forbids file names containing wildcard
characters. The test case fails where the shell attempts to allocate the
file. Skip the test on Windows.

This fixes a new failure in the test suite (t3404.8[67]) on Windows, but
I got around to debug it only now.

FWIW I planned to submit a patch including this fix:

https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/commit/4694320330e1b4d9178e13e215ce60a1cc8e0b1c

(The idea of the `fixup! ` was to make this change part of a larger change during the next merging rebase of Git for Windows.)

Ciao,
Johannes

Thanks. Is that an Ack?

Yes, this is an Ack. (Although I would have preferred to organize the contribution of Windows-related patches better, really.)

Ciao,
