file paths are not handled correctly when using under Cygwin with cygwin git but windows native python #598

Closed rebroad closed 1 month ago

This is perhaps more a feature request than a bug, but in a mixed environment where python (windows native) is being used from within Cygwin (which uses UNIX style paths) this fails.

I don't understand what you're saying in the bug title. Perhaps you could include an example command you are using, the results you are getting, and the results you expect?

closing as perhaps this is a quirky edge-case (mixed environment between cygwin and windows native)
