This is not a major problem, but I thought I’d report it for the curiosity value. On starting a bash shell (in xterm which is probably not relevant) I got the following message: “”” cygwin warning: MS-DOS style path detected: /cygdrive/c/Users/.../Repos/scripts/Home/.bashrc Preferred POSIX equivalent is: /cygdrive/c/Users/.../Repos/scripts/Home/.bashrc CYGWIN environment variable option "nodosfilewarning" turns off this warning. Consult the user's guide for more details about POSIX paths: http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using.html#using-pathnames ... $>bash --version GNU bash, version 4.1.10(4)-release (i686-pc-cygwin) $> “” The puzzling point being that the “Preferred POSIX equivalent” is identical to the remarkably Cygwin like “MS-DOS style path detected”. I am pretty sure this happens because I use a MKLINK symbolic link in %HOME% to reference my .bashrc inside a repository. I do not use a Cygwin symbolic link so that MINGW bash can find my .bashrc as well. Regards, Evan
