v2.17.0-rc0.windows.1

"Release Candidate 0" of v2.17.0

Git for Windows 2.16.2

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 2.16.1(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 #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 2.16.1(2)

Changes since Git for Windows v2.16.1 (January 22nd 2018)

New Features

• Comes with Heimdal v7.5.0.

• 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.

Bug Fixes

v2.16.0-rc2.windows.1

"Release Candidate" 2 of v2.16.0

v2.16.0-rc1.windows.1

"Release Candidate" 1 of v2.16.0

v2.14.3.windows.2

MinGit for Windows v2.14.3(2)

This is a MinGit-only release; compared to v2.14.3, there are no patches
in Git's source code, but all dependencies are updated. Most
importantly, Git Credential Manager is at v1.14.0 (including support for
TLS 1.2) and OpenSSL is now at v1.0.2n, fixing two CVEs. Those two CVEs
do not realistically affect Git for Windows, but you know, CVEs.
