[Boost-testing] New Windows Runner - reset hard error

Subject: [Boost-testing] New Windows Runner - reset hard error

I'm trying to setup a new regression test runner on a windows (virtual) machine.

It appears the regression.py script is having a problem with
git submodule foreach
 ""git reset --quiet --hard; git clean -fxd""
Entering 'libs/accumulators'
error: unknown option `hard;'

I'm running git:
D:\local\teeks99-06\a>git --version
git version 1.9.0.msysgit.0

I run:
C:\> d:
D:\> cd /local/teeks99-06/a
D:\local\teeks99-06\a>python run.py
--runner=teeks99-06a-win2008-64on64 --toolsets=msvc-8.0
--bjam-options="-j2 address-model=64" --comment=..\info.html

Any ideas what might be going wrong?
