You could configure any Windows machine as a build slave. Also, the smallest Windows VM on Amazon is probably less than $20/month. 

I'm not sure who handles the build/CI infrastructure for jgit but perhaps the Jenkins guys (Cloudbees) would be willing to donate a machine?

Anyone doing something for Windows should run the tests there. So I would have
noticed if there was a bare-repo test.

Having a slave running tests on Windows all the time, would be a good idea. We've
had long periods where tests would fail on Windows, but nobody notices. A Windows
champion would be good to have too, to keep the Windows stuff in good shape.
