To answer my own question, I'm seem to be getting this behaviour because I was running the cygwin rsync command under cmd.exe, not cygwin's own shell. This works from cmd.exe:
echo rsync -vv -essh -ac --delete [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/cvs /cygdrive/c/cvs-bup/rsync | bash --login The bash --login option is needed. -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
