Seems like space in the filename was the problem after all.
If Emacs calls git from the path then in my setup it
finds git.cmd which is a wrapper script and does not 
handle these paths properly. It can be fixed by setting
vc-git-program to git.exe instead.

So it's not an emacs bug, but a git problem, therefore
this bug report can be closed.
