cygwin paths rewriting can be surprising #5965

Open kit-ty-kate opened 4 months ago

kit-ty-kate commented 4 months ago

From a Cygwin Terminal, calling opam init --root=/tmp/test creates an opam root in /cygwin/c/tmp (aka. C:\tmp) instead of /tmp (aka. C:\cygwin64\tmp). I think this behaviour is a bit surprising and we might want to have a think at how to do that better
