The following packages have been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution:

* busybox-1.36.1-2
* busybox-standalone-1.36.1-2
* busybox-doc-1.36.1-2

BusyBox combines tiny versions of many (un)common utilities into a 
single executable. It is still smaller than bash.

This is a bugfix release.

Changes since the last Cygwin package 1.36.1-1:
- Applied an upstream fix for SIGWINCH and SIGCHLD. This (at least) 
prevents that the BusyBox shell rewrites the prompt after each resize of 
the Windows console.
- Fixed various issues if 'sleep' is run from the BusyBox shell.
- Enabled function 'rev'.

The source package supports reproducible builds if used with cygport 
0.36.8-1 or later.

Christian
