I got this error: pathspec '.\.filename' did not match any file(s) known to git. when I tried to commit with file path include \, but now it only accepts path with /.
I am running windows 10 with cygwin, previously it works fine, and not sure what exactly cause this problem, any idea?
Just to be clear:
It works!
git commit -m "something" .\filename
It does not work:
git commit -m "something" ./filename

There is a very long discussion about this at Cygwin Git with Windows paths which ended with some patches on 15/12/2018. Have you tried updating Cygwin recently?

Are you running the Cygwin version of Git or some other version? – DavidPostill – 2019-01-06T16:15:32.457
3Aren't your examples opposite of what you initially said? – Kamil Maciorowski – 2019-01-06T16:29:40.710
