Why not generate the .bashrc automatically under home diretory

Hi,

I used the latest [setup-x86_64.exe][1] to set up cygwin environment.

I wanted my /home directory to point to c:\Users rather than the
out-of-the-box home directory created by cygwin.


My current solution is to just mount it in fstab with the following line:

c:/Users /home ntfs binary,posix=0,nouser


After refresh installing and change the fstab above, then startup mintty.
But, I didn't see .bashrc/.profile/.inputrc/.bash_profile was
generated automatically under home directory. I mean the `/etc/skel/*`
files would be copied to home direcotry.

Thanks
