Well, like the error message says, "Function not implemented", i.e. it's a known issue, not exactly a bug. For some more details see e.g. http://stackoverflow.com/a/11664406/1127485. This makes your report more a feature request than a bug report.

Not only that, it also makes it a duplicate of msysgit/msysgit#4.
