Hello Cygwin community,

I've got a small issue. Out there in the oosphere there is mention of a
tool called "applypatch", and I went looking for it in cygwin pkgs. Using
the invocation

`cygcheck -f applypatch'

I don't find any packages that supply "applypatch" or "applypatch.exe" but
now when I am writing this I recall seeing some connection to `git', I just
can't reproduce what I did to stumble across that.

In addition to my question about "applypatch", I am wondering about
something else. I've got git version 2.45.1, and I am puzzled by the
existence of "git" in both /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin.

$ type -ap git.exe
/usr/local/bin/git.exe
/usr/bin/git.exe
