When Braid was first written, this was way back when ruby for windows was largely cygwin based and so posix APIs were emulated. Now ruby for windows is significantly more platform aware and msys/mingw based, making it faster, cleaner, and better in every way for that platform... but the (slow) emulation layer is gone.
Since it is unlikely I will realistically be able to get to this in a timely enough manner for you, I have two suggestions that might help you out here. First, try giving JRuby a shot if it'll work for your project. JRuby is often better at being compatible with *nix ruby than the official windows ruby. If that's not acceptable then you might want to give the cygwin platform a go and install ruby that way.
For completely uncomplicated scenarios of git->git one-way merging, you might want to just use a minimal helper on top of git subtree merge (or manually perform a subtree merge).

I believe the error you're receiving is actually from open4 and not braid... what's the traceback?

+1 for support Windows

With JRuby doesn't work too:
jruby c:\Work\braid\bin\braid add https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg.git src/thirdparty/ffmpeg
JRuby 1.9 mode only supports the `psych` YAML engine; ignoring `syck`
LoadError: no such file to load -- main
require at org/jruby/RubyKernel.java:1027
require at c:/jruby-1.7.2/lib/ruby/shared/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36
(root) at c:\Work\braid\bin\braid:7

As it's currently unknown which Ruby versions the current code does work with you should assume that only MRI on some kind of Unix is supported. @ttilley maybe you can clarify this?
Furthermore Windows support has always been a problem that won't be fixed and the documentation will be updated accordingly.
