To elaborate on this, observe the following:

$ cd /cygdrive/c/Users/kbrown/AppData/Local/Temp

$ getfacl .
# file: .
# owner: kbrown
# group: SYSTEM
user::rwx
group::rwx
group:Administrators:rwx
mask:rwx
other:---
default:user::rwx
default:user:kbrown:rwx
default:group::rwx
default:group:SYSTEM:rwx
default:group:Administrators:rwx
default:mask:rwx
default:other:---

$ mkdir foo

$ getfacl foo
# file: foo
# owner: kbrown
# group: None
user::rwx
group::r-x
group:SYSTEM:rwx
group:Administrators:rwx
mask:rwx
other:r-x
default:user::rwx
default:group::r-x
default:group:SYSTEM:rwx
default:group:Administrators:rwx
default:mask:rwx
default:other:r-x

$ cd foo

$ touch bar

$ getfacl bar
# file: bar
# owner: kbrown
# group: None
user::rw-
group::r--
group:SYSTEM:rwx
group:Administrators:rwx
mask:rwx
other:r--

$ ls -l bar
-rw-rwxr--+ 1 kbrown None 0 2015-09-25 11:56 bar*

$ setfacl -b .

$ getfacl .
# file: .
# owner: kbrown
# group: None
user::rwx
group::r-x
other:r-x
default:user::rwx
default:group::r-x
default:other:r-x

$ touch baz

$ getfacl baz
# file: baz
# owner: kbrown
# group: None
user::rw-
group::r--
other:r--

$ ls -l baz
-rw-r--r-- 1 kbrown None 0 2015-09-25 11:57 baz
