The command is "info registers", of "info r" for short.  You can also print an
individual register using (say) "print $rax" (prefix the register name by $)
or "info r rax".  If you're stepping, you can set up a *layout* that shows all
the register values as you step along.

You also might consider using a reverse debugging tool like the "undo" debugger.
They track enough information to allow them to (effectively) execute backwards
from a point.  Not sure if any work under cygwin, though.

By the way, I got the commands for printing individual registers with a simple
web search :-) ...
