Hello,
was it considered to add a flag to cygpath to output a path in unc format?
For example, the folder
C:\test.
cannot be accessed from many Windows applications (powershell and cmd
included) because of the trailing dot, while cygwin has no issue
creating, accessing and deleting such files/folders.
Using an unc path
\\?\C:\test.
solves the issue for some programs, but cygpath currently misses an
option for creating such path.
Notice that creating a dos path leads to an error.
