Yes, Cygwin is still required for Terrasync, and for patching as well. Its Git utility isn't exactly user-friendly, but if you are used to CVS with Cygwin, the transition to Git isn't difficult. I would guess for most Windows user this is all too much hassle though There is a Windows client for Git: Git-gui, but I can't locate a download site for it atm. I've been using it for a while. It's not brilliant. Tortoise CVS/SVN is much easier. Frankly WinCVS is better than Git-gui, and in some ways better then Tortoise CVS or SVN. I use whichever is more convenient at the time.
