To "desh"!
There are simple methods to find at least the majority of the binary
modules. Suppose you want to know if  tar  is implemented. Then
its name is  tar.exe  Remember also that often the original UNIX
command may have been altered (made better often). Then you
could seek for it with a "g" in front of the UNIX command name.

bash$ tar      ( simply type tar and you get a few lines )
bash$ taxxx    ( non existing )
BASH.EXE: tarxxx: command not found
bash$ tar --help > /some_temp_dir/temp1.txt
               ( you will have a rather complete list of options.
                 Those texts can give you a small manual )
Two directories where binary modules reside are:
..../gnuwin32/b18/H-i386-cygwin32/bin
..../gnuwin32/b18/H-i386-cygwin32/i386-cygwin32/bin
Using Win95 it is possible to search for  tar.exe  among all
files starting from a root, for instance C:\gnuwin\b18
