I found a thread, https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-04/msg00008.html,
from last year where Corinna suggests the following (which works for her; she
notes YMMV)
robocopy C:\cygwin64 F:\cygwin64 /e /purge /z /copyall /sl
On Win7, I'm on a old cygwin installation (thought I'd copy to more spacious
disk before updating) I tried this command after ssh to an admin account, but
the command terminates with
100% New File 210 shells
100% New File 1595 ssh_config
New File 668 ssh_host_dsa_key
2016/09/23 14:54:53 ERROR 5 (0x00000005) Copying File
C:\cygwin64\etc\ssh_host_dsa_key
Access is denied.
where
$ ls -l ssh_host_dsa_key
-rw------- 1 cyg_server Administrators 668 Apr 20 2014 ssh_host_dsa_key
I don't know much about windows. Any ideas on how to get this to work?
Run robocopy as admin from an elevated command shell (bash or cmd) with
Administrator privileges.
Simply running as admin doesn't solve the problem.
$ robocopy C:/cygwin64 F:/cygwin64 -e -purge -z -copyall -sl
....

Try from elevated Command Prompt (Admin) with expected path delimiters and
switch chars:
> robocopy C:\cygwin64 F:\cygwin64 /e /purge /z /copyall /sl
I've had success with:
... /s /copyall /xj /sl /mt:8 /r:0 /w:0 /ndl /nfl /np
but YMMV
