sbt is in Debian and Fedora:
https://packages.debian.org/source/sid/sbt
https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/sbt ,
although neither has the current version, and Debian's package is in
its unstable distro.
A more serious issue is that sbt requires java, which Cygwin doesn't
provide. Cygwin users will have to install a JDK for Windows. This
may or may not disqualify sbt as a Cygwin package. The only similar
situation I know of is libusb0.
My cygport file is attached.
