And that is likely by design. From the docs:

--symlinks
--no-symlinks

    git difftool's default behavior is create symlinks to the working
    tree when run in --dir-diff mode.

    Specifying `--no-symlinks` instructs 'git difftool' to create
    copies instead.  `--no-symlinks` is the default on Windows.

And indeed, we have this initialization:

        my %opts = (
                ...
                symlinks => $^O ne 'cygwin' &&
                                $^O ne 'MSWin32' && $^O ne 'msys',
                ...
        );

Can the --dir-diff tests case pass on Cygwin when neither --symlinks nor
--no-symlinks is passed?

Perhaps the right solution is this:

(Only tested on MinGW, which skips the tests.) I leave it to you
to write --no-symlinks tests.
