# Bash Yes, I have built up to date Bash, this would be my pick if I am allowed maintainer as I feel it is an important package that should be up to date. # Git I have built up to date Git as well, but between Adam Dinwoodie build and CygwinPorts build Git is "good enough" for now # CoreUtils I think I tried and failed to built this a year ago, lately I wanted an up to date version of "dd" for the "skip_bytes" option, but I dont really need that now, so it is lower priority http://unix.stackexchange.com/a/121798 # apt-cyg I just to add for Christopher Faylor and others that I maintain "apt-cyg" a Cygwin package manager. http://github.com/transcode-open/apt-cyg Granted it is not an official package such as Bash, but it is something. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
