There must be some misunderstanding here.  CMake doesn't have anything
to do with C# as far as I know.

That would surprise the heck out of me.  I think you need to go back
to wherever you got your original source of information, and read it
again.

Can't help you about documentation because I think you've heard
something wrong somewhere, and I don't know where.  But installing
CMake on Cygwin is trivial.  Just download the CMake package, it's in
the devel tools section of the Cygwin setup program.
