Message-ID: <DM5P101MB0153C5831550EF2D74018447B5570@DM5P101MB0153.NAMP101.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM> (raw)

Not completely the shell.
From a Windows command prompt:
c:\Apps\cygwin64\bin\cygpath.exe -u \\123.456.789.321\wwwroot\ccenter\bin\online.sh
//123.456.789.321/wwwroot/ccenter/bin/online.sh
c:\Apps\cygwin64\bin\cygpath.exe -u "\\123.456.789.321\wwwroot\ccenter\bin\online.sh"
/cygdrive/c/123.456.789.321/wwwroot/ccenter/bin/online.sh
c:\Apps\cygwin64\bin\cygpath.exe -u "\\\123.456.789.321\wwwroot\ccenter\bin\online.sh"
//123.456.789.321/wwwroot/ccenter/bin/online.sh
c:\Apps\cygwin64\bin\cygpath.exe -u "\\\\123.456.789.321\wwwroot\ccenter\bin\online.sh"
//123.456.789.321/wwwroot/ccenter/bin/online.sh
Looks like cygpath is doing something different when the argument is enclosed in quotes (same behavior if single-quote ' is used).
