Git for Windows v2.16.3
Changes since Git for Windows v2.16.2 (February 20th 2018)
New Features
* Comes with Git v2.16.3.
* When choosing to "Use Git from the Windows Command Prompt" (i.e.
add only the minimal set of Git executables to the PATH), and when
choosing the Git LFS component, Git LFS is now included in that
minimal set. This makes it possible to reuse Git for Windows' Git
LFS, say, from Visual Studio.
* Comes with gawk v4.2.1.
* In conjunction with the FSCache feature, git checkout is now a lot
faster when checking out a lot of files.
* Comes with Git LFS v2.4.0.
* Comes with Git Credential Manager v1.15.0.
* Comes with cURL v7.59.0.
* The Git for Windows SDK can now be "installed" via git clone
--depth=1 https://github.com/git-for-windows/git-sdk-64.
* The tar utility (included as a courtesy, not because Git needs it)
can now unpack .tar.xz archives.
Bug Fixes
* When a TERM is configured that Git for Windows does not know about,
Bash no longer crashes.
* The regression where gawk stopped treating Carriage Returns as part
of the line endings was fixed.
* When Git asks for credentials via the terminal in a Powershell
window, it no longer fails to do so.
* The installer is now more robust when encountering files that are
in use (and can therefore not be overwritten right away).
* The included find and rm utilities no longer have problems with
deeply nested directories on FAT drives.
* The cygpath utility included in Git for Windows now strips trailing
slashes when normalizing paths (just like the Cygwin version of the
utility; this is different from how MSYS2 chooses to do things).
* The certificates of HTTPS proxies configured via http.proxy are now
validated against the ca-bundle.crt correctly.
Git for Windows v2.16.2
Changes since Git for Windows v2.16.1(4) (February 7th 2018)
New Features
* Comes with Git v2.16.2.
* For every new Git for Windows version, .zip archives containing
.pdb files for some of Git for Windows' components are now
published alongside the new version.
* Comes with MSYS2 runtime (Git for Windows flavor) based on Cygwin
2.10.0; This required rebuilding OpenSSH, Perl (and some Perl
modules) and Subversion.
* Comes with Bash v4.4 patchlevel 019 .
Bug Fixes
* The Perl upgrade in Git for Windows v2.16.1(4) broke interactive
authentication of git svn, which was fixed.
* When configuring HTTPS transport to use Secure Channel, we now
refrain from configuring http.sslCAInfo. This also helps Git LFS
(which uses Git for Windows' private http.sslCAInfo setting) to use
the same credentials as git fetch and git push.
Git for Windows v2.16.1(4)
Changes since Git for Windows v2.16.1(3) (February 6th 2018)
Bug Fixes
* When called from TortoiseGit, git.exe can now spawn processes again
.
Git for Windows v2.16.1(3)
Changes since Git for Windows v2.16.1(2) (February 2nd 2018)
New Features
* Git for Windows' SDK packages are now hosted on Azure Blobs, fixing
part of issue git-for-windows#1479.
* Comes with perl-Net-SSLeay v1.84.
Bug Fixes
* When http.sslBackend is not configured (e.g. in portable Git or
MinGit), fetch/push operations no longer crash.
* On Windows 7 and older, Git for Windows v2.16.1(2) was no longer
able to spawn any processes (e.g. during fetch/clone). This
regression has been fixed.
* The Perl upgrade in v2.16.1(2) broke git send-email; This has been
fixed by updating the Net-SSLeay Perl module.
Git for Windows v2.16.1(2)
Changes since Git for Windows v2.16.1 (January 22nd 2018)
New Features
* Comes with Heimdal v7.5.0.
* Comes with cURL v7.58.0.
* Comes with Perl v5.26.1.
* When using GNU nano as Git's default editor, it is now colorful
(shows syntax-highlighting).
* Comes with tig v2.3.3.
* When using Secure Channel as HTTPS transport behind a proxy, it may
be necessary to disable revocation checks, which is now possible.
* Comes with BusyBox v1.28.0pre.16550.0b3cdd76c.
Bug Fixes
* When Git spawns processes, now only the necessary file handles are
inherited from the parent process, possibly preventing file locking
issues.
* The git update command has been renamed to git
update-git-for-windows to avoid confusion where users may think
that git update updates their local repository or worktree.
Git for Windows v2.16.1
Changes since Git for Windows v2.16.0(2) (January 18th 2018)
This is a hotfix release, based on upstream Git's hotfix to address a
possible segmentation fault associated with case-insensitive file
systems.
Note: another hotfix might be coming the day after tomorrow, as cURL
announced a new version addressing security advisories that might
affect how Git talks via HTTP/HTTPS, too.
New Features
* Comes with Git v2.16.1.
Bug Fixes
* A set of regressions introduced by patches intended to speed up
reset and checkout was fixed (issues git-for-windows#1437, git-for-windows#1438, git-for-windows#1440 and git-for-windows#1442.
