New feature in cygwin snapshot


I've recently augmented the /cygdrive abilities of cygwin.

It is now possible to do this:

    bash$ ls /cygdrive
    a  c  d

or even this:

    bash$ cd /cygdrive
    bash$ ls
    a  c  d

Command completion from shells should also work.

Currently all of the above is short-circuited if your cygdrive is set to
'/', however.  Cygwin currently assumes that it has complete control of
the directory name which is being used as a cygdrive prefix and that is
obviously not true if you have changed your cygdrive prefix to '/'.

This functionality is available in the latest snapshot.

FYI,
cgf
