Git for Windows 2.28.0

Changes since Git for Windows v2.27.0 (June 1st 2020)

New Features

• Comes with Git v2.28.0.
• Comes with subversion v1.14.0.
• Comes with the designated successor of Git Credential Manager for Windows (GCM for Windows), the cross-platform Git Credential Manager Core. For now, this is opt-in, with the idea of eventually retiring GCM for Windows.
• Comes with cURL v7.71.1.
• Comes with Perl v5.32.0.
• Comes with MSYS2 runtime (Git for Windows flavor) based on Cygwin 3.1.6 (including the improvements of Cygwin 3.1.5).
• Comes with GNU Privacy Guard v2.2.21.

Bug Fixes

• A typo was fixed in the installer.
• The new git pull behavior option now records the fast-forward choice correctly.
• In v2.27.0, git svn was broken completely, which has been fixed.
• Some Git operations could end up with bogus modified symbolic links (where git status would report changes but git diff would not), which is now fixed.
• When reinstalling (or upgrading) Git for Windows, the "Pseudo Console Support" choice is now remembered correctly.
• Under certain circumstances, the Git Bash window (MinTTY) would crash frequently, which has been addressed.
• When pseudo console support is enabled, the VIM editor sometimes had troubles accepting certain keystrokes, which was fixed.
• Due to a bug, it was not possible to disable Pseudo Console support by reinstalling with the checkbox turned off, which has been fixed.
• A bug with enabled Pseudo Console support, where git add -i would not quit the file selection mode upon an empty input, has been fixed.
• The cleanup mode called "scissors" in git commit now handles CR/LF line endings correctly.
• When cloning into an existing directory, under certain circumstances, the core.worktree option was set unnecessarily. This has been fixed.

Git for Windows 2.27.0

Changes since Git for Windows v2.26.2 (April 20th 2020)

Due to a bug when handling symbolic links that was fixed in this version, git status will show symbolic links as modified even as git diff won't report any changes. The quickest work-around is to call git add -u which lets Git realize that nothing changed, actually.

This release comes with a Git Bash that optionally uses Windows-native pseudo consoles. Meaning: finally, Git Bash can accommodate console programs like node.exe, Python or PHP, without using the winpty helper (see Known Issues). Note that this is still a very new feature and is therefore known to have some corner-case bugs.

New Features

• Comes with Git v2.27.0.
• Comes with OpenSSL v1.1.1g.
• Comes with cURL v7.70.0.
• Comes with subversion v1.13.0.
• Comes with MSYS2 runtime (Git for Windows flavor) based on Cygwin 3.1.4.
• The release notes have been made a bit more readable and are now linked from the Start Menu group.
• The Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) are now linked in a Start Menu item.
• Comes with Git LFS v2.11.0.
• Comes with OpenSSH v8.3p1.

Bug Fixes

• Some Perl packages (e.g. Net::SSLeay) that had been broken recently have been fixed.
• Git for Windows and WSL Git now have the same idea of symbolic links' length, i.e. git status will no longer mark them as modified in Git for Windows after checking them out in WSL.
