Rsync in cygwin also (severely) messes up your files' and folders' NTFS-permissions when synching against a linux-host, which can lead to things like the meltdown of a complete IIS website/webserver setup since the IIS worker process can no longer access the files it needs.

I've learnt the hard way that you dont use rsync in cygwin for anything remotely crucial ;)
