Sorry, no.  If that's git over ssh, it should be covered by a patch in
the last developer snapshots.  If it's occuring in the middle of a
connection, rather than at the end, it's something else, not necessarily
related to Cygwin at all.  And, last but not least,  given that the
potential fix for the potential problem I talked about is definitely not
feasible for Cygwin due to it's unsatisfying behaviour on dup'ed
sockets, my request for a test has been entirely moot anyway.
