My OS is Windows 7 Professional – 64 bit.
I was having problems permission denied so after searching – I found another post that suggested uninstalling git – and reinstalling outside of C:\program files (x86).
I tired that – but now I am getting the following when trying to rebase:
0 [main] sh 8496 proc_subproc: Coundn’t duplicate my handle<0x50> for pid 7196, win32 error 5
4370 [main] sh 8496 fork_copy user/Cygwin data pass 0 failed, 0x47F000..0x4843DC, done 0, windows pid 7196, Win32 error 5
/libexec/git-core/git-sh-setup: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable
I would greatly appreciate any and all help or suggestions. My trying to fix this is simply not working.
Thank you
Jim H. Hickman

So I reckon you might have Cygwin Git installed on your machine as
well, and both of them are somehow listed in your %PATH%.
And this looks like a Unix shell process ("sh") failing.
Git for Windows ships sh.exe in its "bin" subdirectory (which is not
put in the PATH by default); supposedly Cygwin also ships sh.exe, and
it somehow gets executed instead of Git's.
[...]
is listed in your PATH (I mean, if you run cmd.exe and try to run
sh.exe, the shell should fail to do that).

^^^ This. Git for Windows is not a Cygwin-powered application.

Wipe out Cygwin's Git completely and then make sure no part of Cygwin
