Well, there are some ways to get pwd return something not starting
with /cygdrive...
Here are the methods:
| Goba@MIA ~
| $ cd d:/phpcvs
|
| Goba@MIA d:/phpcvs
| $ pwd
| d:/phpcvs
|
| Goba@MIA d:/phpcvs
| $ cd d:
|
| Goba@MIA /cygdrive/d
| $ cd phpcvs
|
| Goba@MIA /cygdrive/d/phpcvs
| $ pwd
| /cygdrive/d/phpcvs
The first is to get to that dir with one command (see prompt
and pwd output). The second is to get to a drive root and then
to a directory. As you can see in the prompt and pwd output,
this way, the cygdrive notation is used. This is probably a
cygwin bug... If you can provide us a workaround, which works
in both cases, do it please ;)
