Hi!

I'm tracking a subversion repository which is running on
a windows machine with git-svn. The user names look like
DOMAIN\username and that's giving a strange display in
gitk as the backslash sequence is evaluated.

I'm not sure if I found the correct place to prevent this,
so I'd like to ask if the following change would be the
correct thing to prepare as patch...

ciao,
   Torsten.
