Try this command: git help apply

Interesting.  Because <your cygwin root>/bin is mounted on /usr/bin,
/bin and /usr/bin can be expected to be the same, but on my system
at least /usr/local/bin is different.  You can use ls to see if they
are in fact the same file:

ls -li /usr/local/bin/git /usr/bin/git
