Subject: [PATCH] Fix "Cannot determine magit's version" logs on Windows

Magit complains loudly (but harmlessly) when it can't determine its own
version in a sparse clone. This was fixed upstream in
magit/magit@b1b2683 for unix OSes, but not for Windows where symlinks
aren't supported, and so `magit-version` can't resolve its own repo's
root (see raxod502/straight.el#520).
