I see the Git Repo for "the core Cygwin libraries and utilities (Cygwin

I am looking at possible work within *COREUTILS*.  Obviously, there are
significant deltas /versus/ GNU Upstream.
Can you point me to the active repo for coreutils?

Just to save net traffic, I'll dare post a second related question in
the same message:
Is *NEWLIB* intended to be a "drop-in" replacement for *GNULIB*?

No.
https://sourceware.org/newlib/
https://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib/MODULES.html

Roughly:
Newlib target is to provide a system libc.

Gnulib target is to provide a modular library implementation for software that aim on multi-platform builds.
