Description

I was upgrading my version of Git today on Windows and I can't seem to use git checkout because Windows doesn't like the following files that end with a period in their filename:

The older version of Git on Windows simply pulled down those files and ignored the period, but the later versions of Git on Windows throws an "invalid path" error.

I'm going to remove all Elemental cache files in a subsequent commit since we have ignored these files since commit 4d8cd6e4. Then, I'll see if I can checkout afterwards without resorting to setting git config core.protectNTFS to false.

Boone, this is just a FYI.
