Cygwin 2.3.3 package

Asked by Ryan Dortmans

Hi folks,

I've noticed that the stable version of Bazaar is now 2.3.3, but the Cygwin package has not been updated; the latest is 2.3.1. Is the Cygwin package maintained at this end or by someone at the Cygwin end?

I have also noticed that the Windows download links still point to 2.3.1 as well. I had to follow the link to "older installers" to find the newer packages.

Cheers,

Ryan Dortmans

We don't maintain the cygwin port. Generally we recommend using the Win32
version if you don't need symlinks. (cygwin adds about 2:1 overhead to
accessing the filesystem).

The solid just needs to be updated.
