I've had this exact bug happen to me when I implemented my git clone.

The way I found out was that Github kept rejecting my push, because as I later discovered, my git history was invalid precisely due to entries being sorted improperly due to the forward slash requirement. I could have solved this with the real git, but the point was to use my tool exclusively for version control from inception, so I just deleted the .git folder. So, my git history appears to begin near the end of the whole cycle. But I did manage to learn a lot, both about git and about the language I implemented it in.
