Cygwin: Stable minimal `bash.exe`
Description
Provide native bash.exe build with minimum set of features supported which on the other hand supports most of the MinGit use-cases, stable enough to be included in #266.
Depencencies
- #287
Acceptance criteria
- Fork of the upstream source code repository of Bash with Windows-on-Arm64-specific changes applied can be built with minimum set of dependencies and configurations on Linux outside of the MSYS2 build system using
aarch64-pc-cygwincross-compilation toolchain that includes minimal required set of POSIX APIs implementations. - The quality of such build is comparable to
aarch64-pc-linux-gnuandx86_64-pc-cygwintarget builds in terms of the percentage of passing tests from the upstream Bash test suite limited to the supported feature set. -
ncursesandreadlineare supported, SSH is not supported.
