Creating webrev under Windows/cygwin fails

[Patrick Reinhart]

Hi there,

Has anyone some tips to create a webrev under Windows? In my case the creation fails using the following command (in the JDK root directory)

mksh  make/scripts/webrev.ksh -o /cygdrive/c/dev

The following output is produced:

 SCM detected: mercurial

No outgoing, perhaps you haven't commited.
    Workspace: C:/dev/jdk8u-dev
Compare against: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u-dev/
    Output to: /cygdrive/c/dev/webrev

*** Error: file not in parent or child

Seem as the base directory is taken somehow twice. Did I something wrong here? The same command under Linux does work without any problems,,,
