Cloning a local repository with EGit resulted in .git/config file containing :
[remote "origin"]
	url = file:///C:\\Users\\YS2042\\git\\Wizteust\\

Which gave pull from menu or cygwin "git pull" to fail.
Changing the triple slash to just a double got the things working :
	url = file://C:\\Users\\YS2042\\git\\Wizteust\\
Hth

Reproducible: Always
