I don't think this is a windows-only branch so to be safe maybe this should only be invoked if windows

This still needs to be addressed @joquijada. I think can you wrap this in a conditional for Cygwin or at least Windows

@rvagg Done, wrapped in a Windows conditional.
I wasn't sure if I should/can write tests for this. |

@refack would there be any objections to adding it back in to GYP3 if someone wants to put in the work? I assume it might not be too hard to figure out the changes that impact support and improve them for Cygwin. |
Landed in c7f1bca after some whitespace changes and commit message edits. @joquijada the caveat above about the coming GYP upgrade is important because these changes aren't necessarily going to be carried over and we don't Cygwin in any of our testing paths. You may need to come back and help get us sorted out but https://github.com/refack/GYP will probably be where GYP changes need to go. |
@rvagg Will check it out |
