[ANNOUNCE] Git for Windows 2.8.4

[Johannes Schindelin]

Dear Git users,

It is my pleasure to announce that Git for Windows 2.8.4 is available from:

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

Changes since Git for Windows v2.8.3 (May 20th 2016)

New Features

  • Comes with Git 2.8.4.

Bug Fixes

  • Child processes no longer inherit handles to temporary files, which
    previously could prevent index.lock from being deleted.
  • When configuring Git Bash with Windows' default console, it no
    longer loses its icon.
