Cloning repository on windows machine causes a problem with invalid paths. Because of backwards compatibility hula Windows, specifically Win32 API (as far as I understand) strips trailing whitespaces and dots making it unable to sort out the filenames.

In summary trailing whitespaces in folder names were stripped, and trailing dots(...) were converted (..._), which is not ideal, but at least makes it work and causes no issues. Nothing besides changing filenames has been done.
