Maybe we should at least mention another cygwin quirk:
cygwin (or is it its bash?) treats .exe files and +x-files without
extension somehow stupid: it prefers the file without extension
to the .exe. For example, after installation of git-merge-recursive
you have the old python script and git-merge-recursive.exe in
the same directory. Guess which one is used... Right, the old
python script. Same for count-objects and other recently
rewritten scripts.
