Dear Git users,
I hereby announce that Git for Windows 2.37.2 is available from:
https://gitforwindows.org/
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).
New Features
* Comes with Git v2.37.2.
* Comes with tig v2.5.6.
* Comes with Bash v5.1 patchlevel 016 .
* Comes with Perl v5.36.0.
* Git's executables are now marked Terminal Server-aware, meaning:
Git will be slightly faster when being run using Remote Desktop
Services.
* git svn is now based on subversion v1.14.2.
* Comes with GNU TLS v3.7.7.
Bug Fixes
* Git for Windows now ships without the zmore and bzmore utilities
(which were broken and included only inadvertently).
* A regression in the vimdiff mode of git mergetool has been fixed.
* With certain network drives, it was reported that some attributes
associated with caching confused Git for Windows. This was fixed.
