The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution:

* jq-1.6-1
* libjq1-1.6-1
* libjq-devel-1.6-1

jq is like sed for JSON data – you can use it to slice and filter and map 
and transform structured data with the same ease that sed, awk, grep and 
friends let you play with text.

This is an update to the latest upstream version, built with oniguruma 6.9.
