config: normalize the path of the system gitconfig
Git for Windows is compiled with a runtime prefix, and that runtime prefix is typically `C:/Program Files/Git/mingw64`. As we want the system gitconfig to live in the sibling directory `etc`, we define the relative path as `../etc/gitconfig`. However, as reported by Philip Oakley, the output of `git config --show-origin --system -l` looks rather ugly, as it shows the path as `file:C:/Program Files/Git/mingw64/../etc/gitconfig`, i.e. with the `mingw64/../` part. By normalizing the path, we get a prettier path. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
