Pre-release

Changes since Git for Windows v2.37.1 (July 12th 2022)

(Upcoming) breaking changes

We updated the included Bash to version 5.1 (previously 4.4). Please check your shell scripts for potential compatibility issues.

Also, as previously announced, Git for Windows dropped support for Windows Vista.

Around the beginning of 2023, Git for Windows will drop support for Windows 7 and for Windows 8, following Cygwin's and MSYS2's lead (Git for Windows relies on MSYS2 for components such as Bash and Perl).

Changes since Git for Windows v2.37.0 (June 27th 2022)

This release addresses CVE-2022-31012 and CVE-2022-29187.

New Features

Bug Fixes

  • Pasting large amounts of text in Git for Windows' Bash when running inside Windows Terminal often resulted in garbled text, which has been fixed.
  • The Perl module perl-Clone which linked to a non-existing DLL was rebuilt to fix the issue.
  • The Git for Windows installer can no longer be tricked into running an untrusted git.exe in elevated mode (CVE-2022-31012).
  • When running Git in a world-writable directory owned by the current user (think C:\Windows\Temp, when running under the SYSTEM account), the checks for dubious ownership of the .git directory now detect this situation properly (CVE-2022-29187).

MinGit for Windows v2.36.2

Changes since Git for Windows v2.36.1 (May 9 2022):

Bug Fixes

* CVE-2022-29187:

  The safety check that verifies a safe ownership of the Git
  worktree is now extended to also cover the ownership of the Git
  directory (and the `.git` file, if there is any).

* Fixes real problems noticed by gcc 12 and works around false
  positives.

* Update URL to the gitk repository.

* The "--current" option of "git show-branch" should have been made
  incompatible with the "--reflog" mode, but this was not enforced,
  which has been corrected.

* "git archive --add-file=<path>" picked up the raw permission bits
  from the path and propagated to zip output in some cases, without
  normalization, which has been corrected (tar output did not have
  this issue).

* A bit of test framework fixes with a few fixes to issues found by
  valgrind.

* macOS CI jobs have been occasionally flaky due to tentative version
  skew between perforce and the homebrew packager.  Instead of
  failing the whole CI job, just let it skip the p4 tests when this
  happens.

* The commit summary shown after making a commit is matched to what
  is given in "git status" not to use the break-rewrite heuristics.

* Avoid problems from interaction between malloc_check and address
  sanitizer.

* "git rebase --keep-base <upstream> <branch-to-rebase>" computed the
  commit to rebase onto incorrectly, which has been corrected.

* The path taken by "git multi-pack-index" command from the end user
  was compared with path internally prepared by the tool withut first
  normalizing, which lead to duplicated paths not being noticed,
  which has been corrected.

* "git clone --origin X" leaked piece of memory that held value read
  from the clone.defaultRemoteName configuration variable, which has
  been plugged.
