Cygwin

Cygwin 1.7.9(1), package dir = D:\TEMP\cygwin, manual proxy, using http://ftp.gwdg.de.
Update group/passwd:

#Example (actually this was done automatically on 1st install, and command below does not give same results?!?)
mkgroup -l > /etc/group
mkgroup -d -g "Domain Users" >> /etc/group
mkpasswd -l > /etc/passdw
mkgroup -d -u beq06659 >> /etc/group

Create launch shortcut Mintty Bash Shell, target: C:\cygwin\bin\mintty.exe /usr/bin/bash --login -i
Add C:\cygwin\bin in PATH (after ...\Wbem).

☒	TODO: might create conflicts with tortoisegit & msysgit...

~~Edit /etc/fstab to move cygdrive prefix to / (alternative to mount --change-cydrive-prefix)~~:

~~vi /etc/fstab # Add the lines: # none / cygdrive binary,posix=0 0 0 mount -a #To mount all~~

Not! → Again a shortcoming of Cygwin, there is no obvious way for scripts to get the cygdrive prefix. Moreover even if it was possible, there is a big chance that scripts would still hardcode /cygdrive as the default prefix. A better and more portable solution is to leave the default prefix to /cygdrive, and create symbolic links in root dir:

for i in c d h z; do ln -sf /cygdrive/$i /$i; done

Add ~/bin/local/nxp/start_nxl67063.sh in windows startup group.
Set /HKLM/Software/Cygwin/heap_chunk_in_mb to 1024 (solve OoM issue in Git).

[2011-07-06]	MC (`mc` + dependencies `glib, libglib1.2_0`)
[2011-07-06]	gvim (`gvim`)	Custom build Vim with ruby support
[2011-07-06]	Cygwin/X (`xorg-server, xinit, xorg-docs, X-start-menu-icons`)	+ some fonts package (like BitStream...) Import custom `be` keyboard layout (`/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/be`) Edited Cygwinstart menu shortcut
[2011-07-08]	mlcscope (`mlcscope`)	Built from source (got here).
[2011-07-08]	cscope	Built from source (got here). Requires `flex, libncurses-devel` (`configure; make; make install`)

[2011-08-03]	ack (`App::Ack`)	Install with cpan, with `force install App::Ack`

[2011-07-05]	For CPAN (`wget, curl, unzip, lynx, ncftp, patch, patchutils`)

To Do

Cygwin Related Issues

Issue — Cygwin Git shows lots of modified files when changing directory with cd. For instance:

cd ~
git st               # No modified files
cd bin
git st               # Plenty of modified files in bin/ and one in ../.vim (strangely...)

Settings:

autocrlf = input (in .gitconfig)
ignorecase = true (in .git/config)
filemode unset

Issue — Synergy interfers with Cygwin/X, AltGr not working. See bug.
To Do — Try to install Gnome Terminator (available from a CygwinPort project mirror). Tried, but failed to load (prob. requires a rebase all or something). Moreover the new X windows had worse fonts.
