Some time ago a second directory structure appeared in Cygwin mirrors. They now have 'release' and 'release-2' folders, along with corresponding 'setup' and 'setup-2' .ini, .bz2, and .sig files.
Both appear to contain the same subfolders. The contents of the 'release' subfolders look like all release versions of GNU utilities, both current and archival, going back to 2002. Those in 'release-2' look like only the most current versions.
Are my interpretations correct? If so, which does the 'setup.exe' installer use? Can one of those two 'release' folders be deleted to allow the rest to fit on a DVD?
You can delete release-2/setup-2 for now. These are the upcoming 1.7 series packages. Unless you're a package maintainer, you don't want these.
