I hope this isn't it.  This is really the only issue I have with running
kubectl in Cygwin.  It takes and outputs text perfectly fine.  I use pipes
for input and output with no issues.  When I run kubectl with winpty, it
changes the text encoding in ways I don't understand yet.

I guess that makes sense. It appears to be irrelevant to my problem.
