Cygwin itself does not have a command, that I know of, to do this. However, you can use the windows command shell to call its internal commands. In bash, e.g. $ /cygdrive/c/Windows/System32/cmd.exe /c dir /a:l /b shows all the junctions in my windows user home folder when I am there. The windows dir command can list links and junctions. The mklink command documentation at https://ss64.com/nt/mklink.html has more information than the "mklink/?" help text about links.
