Since 2012 Git fast-export quotes filepaths that contain spaces [1]. The consequence is that weird filenames are created. This happened to me while importit the gitit repo [2] into darcs (ended with a "data folder for instance). Darcs should detect the quotes and remove them (as does, eg, fossil [3]).
