Describe the bug

Github cannot create this file: https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/wiki/Want-to-help-with-development%3F-List-of-easy-jobs when cloning the repository locally on windows. This is due to the ? present in the filename.

Steps To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Clone the wiki repository on windows
  2. Observe the error that github desktop throws

Expected behavior

A succesful clone of the wiki files

Versions and configuration

Github desktop version 2.1.3
Windows 8

Additional context

(377/377), done.
error: unable to create file Want-to-help-with-development?-List-of-easy-jobs.md: Invalid argument
fatal: unable to checkout working tree
warning: Clone succeeded, but checkout failed.
You can inspect what was checked out with 'git status'
and retry the checkout with 'git checkout -f HEAD'

If you are able to, please change the name of that page to fix this issue. For example to "Help with development - a list of easy jobs.md"
