Hi Adrian...
I thought of doing that too, or changing over when the cygwin package first
appeared, but the native and cygwin versions behave differently regarding
file attributes. I use the native version of unison because it uses windows
permissions as opposed to simulated unix permissions. I synchronize
read-only attributes between machines, but file permissions remain inherited
from the directories.
Thnaks,
...Karl
