No, still seeing the failure in the snapshot: $ ./stat-size-test.exe /cygdrive/y/foo ~/foo /cygdrive/y/foo: fstat: st_size=0 /cygdrive/y/foo: stat: st_size=12 /home/jonathan/foo: fstat: st_size=12 /home/jonathan/foo: stat: st_size=12 $ uname -a CYGWIN_NT-10.0 Vidyo-LT0519-10 2.3.0(0.291/5/3) 2015-11-02 11:15 x86_64 Cygwin (See https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2014-04/msg00488.html for the source code to stat-size-test.c). Oddly, though, the original problematic behavior I saw in emacs (with it falsely detecting files as being modified externally) has gone away. Maybe emacs added a workaround for this? -- Jonathan Lennox len...@cs.columbia.edu -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
