not agree with my proposal. So why then asking to make a git patch?
I don't have the full knowledge and (even more important) the time to make
Cygwin
alike inode implementation. So I'm willing to make a git patch for the code I
provided,
but not able to make something that let get windows more close to POSIX
behavior.
It is almost a design decision to choose to what level Windows should behave
like
POSIX systems. It is IMO impossible to tell such changes in a git change. So I

to know what is wanted here?
