Hopefully I'm not breaking etiquette, but an update may be useful for others.
It looks like this issue is no longer an issue in git-2.14.3-1, though it may be fixed in earlier releases. The relevant patch is probably https://github.com/git/git/commit/496f256 merged into master for 2.13.4. The earliest Cygwin git with this fix was probably git-2.14.0-1 released 2017-08-09. -- 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
