[PATCH] config.mak.uname: Cygwin: Use renames for creation

From: Adam Dinwoodie <hidden>
Date: 2016-06-15 23:06:06
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

When generating build options for Cygwin, enable
OBJECT_CREATION_USES_RENAMES.  This is necessary to use Git on Windows
shared directories, and is already enabled for the MinGW and plain
Windows builds.

This problem was reported on the Cygwin mailing list at
https://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2015-08/msg00102.html (amongst others) and
is being applied as a manual patch to the Cygwin builds until the patch
is taken here.
