To keep up to date, every day when booting I automatically update Cygwin
with the following in a startup batch file.
setup -B -q -n -o -R <path> -l <path>
Even when nothing is updated, setup seems to rebase and run all the
/etc/postinstall/zp_* files.
This seems unnecessary. If that is correct, would it be possible to have
setup always skip rebase & zp_* when not packages are updated, or
at least have a command line option to skip rebase and running zp_*?
I'm not a developer, so I cannot contribute a patch. Sorry.
Thanks for considering this.
