Hello, I would like to "move" my cygwin installation to a different location, but preserving the usual paths to all the apps by using a junction point to that moved/copied subtree of cygwin.
The 1st main problem ist that copy/move with the windows explorer (xcopy) doesn't preserve all the rights. How can I copy the whole cygwin subtree to a new location an preserving all the "cgwin/unix-styled" rights (I don't mean the windows rights) With windows it would look like: xcopy C:\cygwin\*.* H:\cygwin\ /e /y move C:\cygwin C:\cygwinOld mklink /j C:\cygwin H:\cygwin But that doesn't preserve the usual "unix" rights inside the cygwin installation. But how can I do such a task?
