Cygwin is basically one dll that maps unix system/library calls into windows
equivalents, and all the other files are the separate applications/tools that
you expect to be present in a unix environment. cwRsync is another installer
packaging of the minimal files you need for ssh/rsync on windows. It doesn't
have the GUI front end like DeltaCopy but that mostly just creates the config
file for a standalone rsync daemon anyway and if you run over ssh you don't
need
that.
