hello ...
usually the best thing to do is to take a look at the official todo list
of PostgreSQL and focus of on one area of the database code. everything
at once is usually too complex.
just pick the area you are most interested it and start with small patches.
once you are familiar with the process here you can extend you scope.
best regards,
hans

I would stronly suggest you pick a different platform than cygwin. Native
win32 is much better if you're going to go on windows. I don't know of
anybody who actively develops with pg on cygwin these days, so if you run
into problems there you're unlikely to find someone to help you.

OTOH, the Cygwin psql, with full readline and history support, is much
nicer to use.
