This replaces the experimental 8.23-3 and stable 8.23-2, and leaves 8.15-1 (32-bit) or 8.15-3 (64-bit) as previous. NEWS: =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D This is a minor update that fixes a regression in the -3 build, where a rewrite of the cygwin-only .exe magic caused directories to fail during recursive copies. For upstream details, see /usr/share/doc/coreutils/NEWS. If you missed the note in 8.23-2, there is no longer an 'su' program in coreutils; this is an upstream decision (many Linux distros are getting su from other packages, and even though cygwin's su had come from coreutils, it was heavily patched and doesn't work as smoothly as on Linux). I'm still debating whether it is worth trying to capture the last release of coreutils' su, as patched to work on cygwin, for distribution as an independent package; help would be appreciated from anyone else interested in this task. If you encounter a regression, please report it here rather than upstream. See also the upstream documentation in /usr/share/doc/coreutils/. Help in porting the stdbuf utility to cygwin would be appreciated.
