reboot on cygwin is just a link to shutdown


$ shutdown --help
Usage: shutdown [OPTION]... time
Bring the system down.

   -f, --force      Forces the execution.
   -s, --shutdown   The system will shutdown and power off (if supported)
   -r, --reboot     The system will reboot.
   -h, --hibernate  The system will suspend to disk (if supported)
   -p, --suspend    The system will suspend to RAM (if supported)
   -a, --abort      Aborts execution of formerly started shutdown.
   -x, --exitex     Use ExitWindowsEx rather than InitateSystemShutdown.
       --help       Display this help and exit.
       --version    Output version information and exit.
