This isn't Subversion's responsibility; the problem is more general: how do you tell if the version of awk, sed or vim are Cygwin ones or not (or ones compiled containing a specific patch, or built on a particular day, or any other of a myriad of different things that could make a difference to an executable's behaviour)? The general problem has a general solution: check your path and actually determine which executable you're using. As marco pointed out, use `which` from a Cygwin shell; from a Windows cmd shell the equivalent command is `where`: C:\>where svn C:\Program Files\CollabNet\Subversion Client\svn.exe C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin\svn.exe PS: Please don't reply directly to me; I'm already on the mailing list and don't need a second copy. The same goes for everyone else who's replying to you, particularly if their Reply-To is the mailing list, unless they explicitly request otherwise, per . I'm Cc'ing you explicitly as it's not clear you're signed up to this mailing list and will receive emails sent solely to it. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
