    Prohibit Windows special chars in filenames
    
    Using any of these chars [:*?"<>|] in a filename is forbidden on
    Windows and breaks git operations on Windows as git is not able
    to create those files/directories on clone or pull.
    
    Because some of them can be used in UNIX filenames they tend to
    creep into filenames; especially : in PCI/SCSI device names that
    are used as filenames in test cases.
