I think he was saying that this:

   $ cat ssh-backup-all.bat
   C:\cygwin\bin\bash ./ssh-backup-all
   $ cat ssh-backup-all
   #! /bin/sh
   . /etc/profile
   . /home/dpchrist/.bash_profile
   ##### do backup stuff
     

could be reduced to this:

   $ cat ssh-backup-all.bat
   C:\cygwin\bin\bash -l ./ssh-backup-all
   $ cat ssh-backup-all
   ##### do backup stuff
