remove special characters on file names. Cannot clone on windows #236

For windows users up there, special characters will make windows file system cry. I found a way, but maybe it will be help someone. The following 2 files in others are causing problems. I believe it is ":" image

example if you try to clone. image

Honestly, I think it might be a bit of a stretch to consider : a special character, but it does seems to be a legit Windows-specific problem. You got me on that. Since they are "other/" old models, they could probably be chucked without too much worry, but colons in filenames (and other characters) is likely something that you'll have to contend with at some point one way or another. Generally, we target POSIX-like systems for development and deployment.
