It's probably a very niche situation, but it's a bug anyway.
If you have the remote set as another folder:
git remote -v
origin X:\repos\llvm-project\ (fetch)
origin X:\repos\llvm-project\ (push)
Then build/tools/clang/lib/Basic/VCSVersion.inc might look something like:
...
#define LLVM_REPOSITORY "X:\repos\llvm-project\"
...
Which is invalid because of the escapes.
