Since:
 http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2016-02/msg00250.html

I have been struggling with using apt-cyg to download package updates, 
because it uses wget, and running setup local.
Also using no-admin, without -m, I had similar problems
 getting the latest or test versions to download and install. My latest trick was deletes in /etc/setup/installed.db, and a small mod to apt-cyg.
I got cygwin 2.5.0-0.8 and mintty 2.3.3 this way.

I took a shot at git mirror of setup, to see if I could add user/password, or user-agent, options to setup,
 but getting git to download anything has so far failed for me.
