I tried setting up a Cygwin Git build on AppVeyor a little while ago, but the problem I found is that Cygwin builds are slow, particularly if you want to also run the test suite. I do the builds for the Cygwin distribution on my normal PC (so reasonably powerful but definitely not devoted to the purpose), and doing the build and running the default tests takes in the region of 8 hours for the 64-bit build and 12 hours for the 32-bit build. At the moment, I'm trying to set up automated regular builds on my PC using BuildBot. I think that, short of someone donating some fairly significant resources for Cygwin builds, that's going to be the closest I'll be able to find for spotting problems early. It's a project in my currently limited spare time, though, and not something I've done before, so it's taking a little while to get going. Adam
