Unexpected zero return code from `throw std::runtime_error`

2022-07-02 Thread Adam Dinwoodie
I'm currently experimenting with compiling rdfind for Cygwin, and one of the testcases is failing because std::runtime_error is expected to result in the compiled program exiting with a non-zero return code, but on Cygwin, it just seems to cause the program to terminate with a zero return code. I'

unzip failure with files that contain colons

2022-06-15 Thread Adam Dinwoodie
Cygwin generally handles filenames with colons just fine, by mapping the character to some higher Unicode character and remapping on the fly. However Cygwin's `unzip` appears to have a bug: when unzipping an archive that contains a filename with a colon, it replaces the colon with an underscore. c

Microsoft OneDrive has a "Files On-Demand" function, where it will synchronise file metadata to a local system, but won't actually download the file content until an application attempts to read the content. When moving a file within Cygwin using `mv`, the file always gets downloaded, which seems l
