+
+[![Test](https://github.com/egor-tensin/setup-cygwin/workflows/Test/badge.svg)](https://github.com/egor-tensin/setup-cygwin/actions?query=workflow%3ATest)
+
+This is a GitHub action that sets up Cygwin in your workflow run.
+

+`x64` is the default value for the `platform` parameter and can be omitted.
+Use `x86` if you want to install the 32-bit Cygwin.
+
+Specify any additional packages to be installed as a space-separated list in
+the `packages` parameter.
+
+Set the installation directory using the `install-dir` parameter (C:\tools\cygwin
+is the default).
