You'll experience less troubles with Cygwin tools if you use Posix-style
paths ('/' rather than '\' and use '/cygdrive/<drive>' for drive names as

Looks like you have a rebase problem.  Interesting that you see it with
'ssh'.  Anyway, install the rebase package, read its README in
/usr/share/doc/Cygwin, and run 'rebaseall' as outlined there.
