[ANNOUNCE] Git for Windows 2.9.0

[Johannes Schindelin]

Dear Git users,

It is my pleasure to announce that Git for Windows 2.9.0 is available from:

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

Changes since Git for Windows v2.8.4 (June 7th 2016)

Bug Fixes

  • When running git gc --aggressive or git repack -ald in the presence
    of multiple pack files, the command still had open handles to the
    pack files it wanted to remove. This has been fixed.
