Would it be possible to update the version of tar currently in cygwin?
The current version is 1.26, which, in the GNU project anyway, was
released in March 2011. I need a version with a bug fix done in Nov
2011, so 1.27 or the latest (1.27-1) should do.
The bug fix fixes (among other things) the use of the -diff option with
an archive created with -g (listed-incremental). A related post from
Sergey Poznyakoff, one of the GNU tar maintainers, will found here:
