There are symbolic links in the codebase, and if there are changes to source during the compilation process and that source is also referenced by symbolic link(s) elsewhere, the same file diffs being included multiple times via different symlink paths.

The script is detecting that Ruby is installed in the runner, but that detected version is not the Cygwin build but instead one found at "/c/hostedtoolcache/windows/Ruby/3.3.8/x64/bin/ruby". As a workaround, I then installed the Cygwin build of Ruby on the GitHub runner, and then "cygport package" step completes without issue.
Add any required RubyGems or packages to your cygport BUILD_REQUIRES to have
them preinstalled for your build - a comment saying why might be useful.
