Gina, the real answer is in your comment above. You have to close down not just any Git bash window, but ALL git bash windows and then re-open one of them. At that point, cd /f will work. By the way, cd F: also works, as the bash terminal converts that to /f. I just confirmed this on Windows 7 64-bit.
