Windows: Add path as project dir fails when using linux like folder navigation #152

Steps to reproduce:

If you type /Users//git/project in the input field, click on the plus button, the project root path is added correct to the sidebar, and all files in it. If i open the files, they are empty and marked as modified. I don't know what happens if i save accidentally.

Expected result:

If i type a linux like path, convert it back to windows separator divided path when on windows after click on plus button, and before adding the folder as a project root path.

Explanation:

  • ~/ is faster to type
  • There is no default start path (why i use the user dir)
  • Looks nicer, and muscle memory is reused from git-bash shell for windows. (pressing same keys to achieve the same, apart from typing cd ;-) )

Besides, an awesome piece of software, should be the default way to open files for atom... i hate windows ui to select folder to open.

Thanks for the report! I don't have a great way to reproduce this myself, so I can't really diagnose what's going on here. If anyone else sees this and has a Windows machine and can reproduce/diagnose the problem, it's be really helpful!
