Thanks Marco.

PLEASE don't point to off-site unofficial documentation when
we have local official documentation.

Thank you. We have not, to date, seen any messages about forking
problems or dll loading problems. I presume, though, that other
behaviors might also indicate this rebase action is needed?

For instance, if we open a bash console, perform an ssh to another
machine, do some work, then close the window, the bash and ssh still
seem to be listed when we look at the windows 7 task manager.


I use cygwin all the time under Windows 7 64-bit and that does not
happen to me. Thus it would seem to be particular to your setup, or
maybe to the specific version (I've not updated for a few weeks) ...

I have 64-bit Win7 with cygwin, and after a while this
sort of thing runs out of resources (errno 11) until I reboot (and then starts
up after a few ok runs, as just now):
 
$ find . -name *.java | while read i ; do
 echo  $i  x
 grep foob $i  x
 done
375832787 [main] -bash 6020 fork: child -1 - forked
process died unexpectedly, retry 0, exit code -1073741819, errno 11
-bash: fork: retry: Resource temporarily unavailable
-bash: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable
 
And I think I have noticed lots of bash processes hanging
around, though not in this instance.

EM - what does rebase mean? I tried doing a man rebase but didn't
get a man page.
