If I execute
mypath=`cygpath -w ../`
echo $mypath
I get
d:\unix\nextVersion\script
OK, d:\unix\nextVersion\script is the correct windows version of the path, but
it is in absolute form. I would prefer it if cygpath left it in relative form,
i.e.
echo $mypath
should output
..\
Executing
cygpath --help
indicates that the only related option is -a, but that forces conversion to
absolute paths, which is the opposite of what I want. It seems, unfortunately,
as if cygpath has -a on by default and has no way to turn it off!
Is this a known bug or implementation quirk in cygpath, or did I overlook
something? (Web searching on cygpath and "relative path" generated a ton of
hits, but none out of the first 100 that I looked thru seemed related...)
