"This" being "Git", and http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-09/msg00072.html

The problem child here is Git that bindly assumes that there's no other
permissions than POSIX permissions, and no other executables than POSIX
executables.
Both statements aren't true for any given OS these days.

I didn't, but I'm reading the list patiently, picking knowledge where I can.
Thanks to Adam. This solution came up relatively recently.
