The current distributed version of tar (1.25) has bugs in it which prevent it
working
correctly for backups. This is NOT a cygwin only defect. The defect is
upstream and

Hi,
I'd like to suggest a possible enhancement to mount and fstab entries to
support mounting a
path dependent on the usb drive that is attached.
I read a thread somewhat related
(http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2011-07/msg00367.html)
which was rejected, however I think that this is a different ide

Not quite. The POSIX path will give you the correct mapping of Windows

Because I'm having trouble getting gcc to recognize

happens) environment.

Larry,
Do you mean that, with a POSIX path, I get ACL-based permissions, but with
Windows paths, I get just user-group-other permissions?
That sounds reasonable, but shouldn't they agree as far as they overlap? In
the following example, for example, shouldn't they agree whether foo is

Hmm. I'll have to try another time after a reboot with just bash alone to rule
out any interference. I have a dual core machine (no hyperthreading) if that

hi,
when trying to use git-svn, message containing "Can't locate
Term/ReadKey.pm in @INC ..." comes up.
After locating and installing package containing "ReadKey.pm" everything is ok.
I suspect there is a missing dependency between git-svn package and
perl_vendor package.
Cheers
Pawel
