Skip the failing tests by unsetting POSIXPERM.


But is this the real reason? I thought Cygwin implemented POSIX permissions...?
t0070:
 'mktemp to unwritable directory prints filename'
  mkdir cannotwrite &&
  chmod -w cannotwrite &&
  test_when_finished "chmod +w cannotwrite" &&
  test_must_fail test-mktemp cannotwrite/testXXXXXX 2>err &&
  grep "cannotwrite/test" err

When a directory under Linux/*nix has no write permission,
it is not allowed to create another directory (or file..) here.
This is not working under cygwin, a directory/file can be created
even if the parent directory has chmod 0.
-------------
tb@PC /cygdrive/c/temp
$ mkdir ttt

tb@PC /cygdrive/c/temp
$ chmod 0 ttt

tb@PC /cygdrive/c/temp
$ ls -ld ttt
d---------+ 1 tb None 0 Feb  6 20:33 ttt

tb@PC /cygdrive/c/temp
$ touch ttt/x

tb@PC /cygdrive/c/temp
$ ls -ld ttt
d---------+ 1 tb None 0 Feb  6 20:33 ttt

tb@PC /cygdrive/c/temp
$ ls -l ttt
total 0
-rw-r--r--+ 1 tb None 0 Feb  6 20:33 x
-------------------------------------------

If this is POSIX compliant? I'm not an expert here.
On the other hand:
This test case does not test git, but rather the file system,
so we can probaly remove it?

About 1301:
Some resereach needs to be done, to find out the connection between
umask, cygwin and the mount options.

On my system I have:
$mount
C: on /cygdrive/c type ntfs (binary,posix=0,user,noumount,auto)
