Although I read the article with some amusement, I have to wonder what's wrong with rsync (has a Windows port, albeit somewhat slow with Cygwin implementation). His fallback is using cp which I found utterly incomprehensible.
Until Cygwin's developers decide the join the rest of the window's universe in having an *uninstaller* it will remain "not installed - ever" on many people's systems, including mine. It is completely unacceptable that it is happy to install, but that you have to *manually* rip it out piece-by-piece if you ever want to uninstall it.
