No description provided.

Tools (versus libraries) have a single package on Cygwin which is used
by both the Cygwin build of opam and also by the native Windows builds
of opam.

Cygwin build: os = "cygwin" & os-distribution = "cygwin"
Native Windows: os = "win32" & os-dstribution = "cygwin"
                   (or os-distribution = "msys2")

Hence os-distribution = "cygwin" is a good filter for these shared
depexts.
The old packages use os = "cygwin" because they are already constrained
away from native Windows. The latest version uses the
os-distribution = "cygwin" shared depext filter.
These are depexts specifically for Cygwin's GCC when building Cygwin
executables, hence os = "cygwin"
Native Windows opam already ensures that Git for Windows is installed,
so the depext here is for os = "cygwin" only; on native Windows, git has
already been made a required tool for opam.
