Dear Git users,

It is my pleasure to announce that Git for Windows 2.9.2 is available from:

	https://git-for-windows.github.io/

Changes since Git for Windows v2.9.0 (June 14th 2016)

New Features

  • Comes with Git 2.9.2 (skipping the Windows release of Git 2.9.1 due
    to a regression caught by the automated tests).
  • Git Credential Manager was updated to v1.5.0.
  • The installer will now refuse to downgrade Git for Windows, unless
    the user assures that it is intended.
  • MinGit, the portable, non-interactive Git intended for third-party
    tools, is now also built as part of Git for Windows' official
    versions.

Bug Fixes

  • When git bundle create is asked to create an empty bundle, it is
    supposed to error out and delete the corrupt bundle file. The
    deletion no longer fails due to an unreleased lock file.
  • When launching git help <command>, the help.browser config setting
    is now respected.
  • The title bar in Git for Windows' SDK shows the correct prefix
    again.
  • We no longer throw an assertion when using the git
    credential-store.
  • When configuring notepad as commit message editor, UTF-8 messages
    are now handled correctly.
