Hi,
We found that cp corrupts binary files which is quite embarrassing...
peugeot[/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32]> cp notepad.exe notepad_copy.exe
peugeot[/cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32]> diff notepad.exe notepad_copy.exe
Files notepad.exe and notepad_copy.exe differ
Please find attached the output of cygcheck -s -v -r .
Is anyone had this issue? Is there any workaround?
Regards,
Vincent
