Where is the documentation of the igncr (ignore-CR) option for Cygwin 1.7's

- the current CygWin FAQ (http://cygwin.com/faq.html), or

Nope, since those are generally about cygwin1.dll, and not bash.

- in bash man page from CygWin.

Nope, since I haven't bothered to make my cygwin-specific patch even bigger than it already is by touching the man page too (but PTC, if you write such a patch, I'll probably include it, next time I repackage bash for cygwin).


(I did find some e-mail about it from several years ago, but haven't
yet found anything that clearly applies to the current version of Cygwin
bash.))

Yep - that email (most recently here[1]), along with /usr/share/doc/Cygwin/bash.README, are the definitive sources of all documentation to cygwin-specific patches to bash (of which igncr is one).
