To me it seems impossible to get it to work. go get is using absolute paths and these do not play well with cygwin given that you have to use a Windows-style GOPATH on cygwin.
You'll have to use a Windows-aware shell with Windows path git. It's a PITA. Maybe go get could detect Cygwin? Want to open an issue?
