It seemed to be happening for all modules, not just that one.
I tried upgrading git to 1.7.4 and this module to 0.6.0, and now I get this:
rkitover@hlagh /tmp/easydbi % git cpan-init POE::Component::EasyDBI

Did you intend to checkout 'cpan/master' which can not be resolved as commit?

I uninstalled the module in cpanp and reinstalled it as well, same results.
On my cygwin everything works fine now:

After uninstalling and reinstalling the module, I was getting the same results
as above for a while.
