Cygwin + Sublime Text 3 : works with files and Git

subl

#!/bin/bash
# To create in [.babun/]cygwin/usr/local/bin/subl with chmod +x

ARGS=""
while test $# -gt 0
do
  ARGS="$ARGS ${1#/cygdrive/[a-zA-Z]}"; # Remove /cygdrive and disk letter from the path
  shift
done

/cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/Sublime\ Text\ 3/subl.exe $ARGS

I get "access refused" when I try to edit a file in this folder. I can't use sudo to change chmod either, kinda stuck. Any idea?

I ran into this same strange thing, probably because it is used by Cygwin.
What you can do: delete the old file, then you can create it again.

@cmalard this worked beautifully! Much obliged for this!

Thanks @cmalard, It works good for git commands such as git rebase -i HEAD~3,
but when I try to open a file,
e.g. subl ~/.zshrc, it opens in the wrong path:

Expected:
C:\cygwin64\home\myuser\.zshrc

Actual (wrong):
C:\home\myuser\.zshrc

Another example:
subl /usr/local/bin/test

Expected:
C:\cygwin64\usr\local\bin\test

Actual (wrong):
C:\usr\local\bin\test
