 ### Filepath issues with Cygwin/MinGW Vim and Windows Git
 
+Windows Git must be upgraded to support mixed paths (ie. `C:/Users/foo/.vim/plugged`).
+Modify your vimrc to use `g:plug_home` instead of passing a filepath to `plug#begin` so that vim-plug does not convert it back to Unix paths (ie. `/home/foo/.vim/plugged`) and break when passing filepaths to Windows Git.
+
 ```vim
+let g:plug_home = '~/.vim/plugged'
 if has('win32unix')
 \ && executable('cygpath')
 \ && executable('git')
