Regarding the installation of Cygwin: Downloading and Installing all the stuff from the "Devel" package takes quite long. I am sure most of the stuff in there is definitely not required (Mercurial?

Regarding the installation of Cygwin: Downloading and Installing all the stuff from the "Devel" package takes quite long. I am sure most of the stuff in there is definitely not required (Mercurial? Subversion bindings for Ruby? Prolog Interpreter??) but I am not sure which components really are required.
