I recently (finally) installed Windows 10 on my system (clean install).  All of my files are stored in on a secondary drive/partition, on which cygwin is also installed.  I expected to be able to just pick up where I left off, but I'm getting all sorts of permissions issues with cygwin.  I did

Hello, I have a large collection of custom tooling that depends on rsync.  It used to work very well, but recently, rsync has become highly unstable.  It frequently (dozens of times a day) hangs.  These are rsync executions where the source and target are both on the same local drive. Eventu

Fair enough. I don't think I've encountered any scripts that modify the system in my use of cygwin, so I didn't think of it. You're correct, "mostly portable" is more accurate. On January 20, 2020 20:33:22 "Lavrentiev, Anton (NIH/NLM/NCBI) [C] via cygwin" wrote: Cygwin is totally portab
