Under ssh(1) ENVIRONMENT: "Additionally, ssh reads ~/.ssh/environment, and adds lines of the format “VARNAME=value” to the environment if the file exists and users are allowed to change their environment. For more information, see the PermitUserEnvironment option in sshd_config(5)." which says: "PermitUserEnvironment Specifies whether ~/.ssh/environment and environment= options in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys are processed by sshd(8). The default is no." In sshd(8) under AUTHORIZED_KEYS FILE FORMAT: "environment="NAME=value" Specifies that the string is to be added to the environment when logging in using this key. Environment variables set this way override other default environment values. Multiple options of this type are permitted. Environment processing is disabled by default and is controlled via the PermitUserEnvironment option." Set /etc/sshd_config PermitUserEnvironment=yes then try adding in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on the same line before your remote host key: environment="SHELL=/bin/fish" followed by a space before the key type, or add to ~/.ssh/environment so it will apply to all remote host connections: SHELL=/bin/fish and ensure those files have only user rw permissions as usual with ssh. -- Take care.

how to make sshd start a shell other than bash when I log in?
My regular shell is fish. To make local terminals run fish instead of bash when I start them, I set SHELL=/usr/bin/fish in my desktop environment. This works fine: I start MinTTY, and fish starts. But when I log into that same host by sshd, bash starts, not fish (since sshd doesn't have access to my desktop environment variables). How can I configure either my ssh client or the ssh server to start fish instead of bash? On a Linux host, sshd will start the user's default shell, as recorded in /etc/passwd and set by chsh. But in Cygwin we don't have those. On the client I know I could run e.g. ssh host /usr/bin/fish --login but I don't want to have to do that every time, and there doesn't seem to be a way to set it in ssh_config.

It doesn't --- not when the files' ACLs are set up correctly, anyway. Nor is futzing with mount options the right solution to that issue. You'll have to adjust the ACLs instead. Comparing mount options of msys2 against cygwin, msys2 has an extra noacl option. So I guess noacl may turn off this cygwin `feature`.

Settings from lang.sh causing garbled output in dialog when run from cmd.exe
If I invoke a login shell from a Windows command prompt and run a dialog:
dialog --no-cancel --inputbox "test" 0 0 ""
I get garbled output. I do not have this issue when running from mintty.
See the following image examples:
http://imgur.com/a/Y4mEC
http://imgur.com/a/7akZQ
If I remove this line from /etc/profile.d/lang.sh:
test -z "${_LC_ALL_SET_:-${LC_CTYPE:-$LANG}}" && export
LANG=$(/usr/bin/locale -uU)
Then the problem goes away.
Why am I getting garbled output with this line present?
