| Git 2.45.2 Jun 3, 2024 | |
| Git 2.43.0 Nov 20, 2023 |
New Features: Comes with Git v2.43.0. Comes with MSYS2 runtime v3.4.9. Comes with GNU TLS v3.8.1. When installing into a Windows setup with Mandatory Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) enabled, which is incompatible with the MSYS2 runtime powering Git Bash, SSH and some other programs distributed with Git for Windows, the Git for Windows installer now offers to add exceptions that will allow those programs to work as expected. Comes with OpenSSH v9.5.P1. Comes with cURL v8.4.0. Comes with OpenSSL v3.1.4. Comes with Git Credential Manager v2.4.1. Comes with Bash v5.2.21. Comes with MinTTY v3.7.0. Bug Fixes: Symbolic links whose target is an absolute path without the drive prefix accidentally had a drive prefix added when checked out, rendering them "eternally modified". This bug has been fixed. Git for Windows's installer is no longer confused by global GIT_* environment variables. The installer no longer claims that "fast-forward or merge" is the default git pull behavior: |
| Git 2.42.0.2 Aug 30, 2023 |
Bug Fixes: Git for Windows v2.42.0's release notes claimed that it ships with Git LFS v3.4.0, which is incorrect and has been fixed in this release. The installer option to enable support for Pseudo Consoles has been handled incorrectly since Git for Windows v2.41.0, which has been fixed. Some Git commands (those producing paged output, for example) experienced a significant slow-down under certain circumstances, when running on a machine joined to a domain controller, which has been fixed. As of Git for Windows v2.41.0, when installed into a location whose path contains non-ASCII characters, it was no longer possible to fetch from/push to remote repositories via https://, which has been fixed. |
| Git 2.42.0 Aug 22, 2023 |
New Features: Comes with Git v2.42.0. Comes with cURL v8.2.1. Comes with Git LFS v3.4.0. Comes with OpenSSL v3.1.2. Comes with OpenSSH v9.4.P1. Comes with Git Credential Manager v2.3.2. Bug Fixes: When init.defaultBranch is changed manually in the system config, subsequent Git for Windows upgrades would overwrite that change. This has been fixed. When running on a remote APFS share, Git would fail, which has been fixed. |
| Git 2.41.0.3 Jul 14, 2023 |
New Features: Comes with Git Credential Manager v2.2.2. |
| Git 2.41.0.2 Jul 7, 2023 |
New Features: Comes with MSYS2 runtime v3.4.7. Comes with OpenSSL v3.1.1, a major version upgrade (previously Git for Windows distributed OpenSSL v1.1.*). To support interoperability with Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) better, it is now possible to let Git set e.g. the executable bits of files (this needs core.WSLCompat to be set, and the NTFS volume needs to be mounted in WSL using the appropriate options). Bug Fixes: Portable Git: The Windows version is now parsed more robustly in the post-install script. The labels of the File Explorer menu items installed by the Git for Windows installer have been aligned with what is customary ("Open Git Bash Here" instead of "Git Bash Here"). |
