Thanks for help getting here and also the upstream folks!
Please review wget2 repackaged into subpackages available under:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1VVuC14KuB6uShm4FQL9BuXH0hpLYnIcJ?usp=sharing
Appveyor CI playground repo wget2 jobs:
https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/jobs.cgi?id=1308
I have been dogfooding wget2 instead of wget in commands and cron jobs and it
appears considerably faster, but does not support FTP or other protocols
supported by curl or wget, and does not support wget --retr-symlinks=no option
which retrieves symlink contents verbatim for analysis with readlink e.g. wget
...-latest... and see if it points to the previous or a newer version.
For more compatibility info see:
