Looks like a packaging problem as the man dirs are created but not populated:
https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-cat.cgi?file=x86_64%2Frsync%2Frsync-3.1.3%2B20200429%2Bgitf7746d0-1&grep=rsync
2020-05-05 12:11 0 usr/share/man/
2020-05-05 12:11 0 usr/share/man/man1/
2020-05-05 12:11 0 usr/share/man/man5/
but the previous releases include the man pages:
https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-cat.cgi?file=x86_64%2Frsync%2Frsync-3.1.2-1&grep=rsync
