[ANNOUNCE] Git for Windows 2.42.0-rc2

[Johannes Schindelin]

Dear Git users,

I hereby announce that Git for Windows 2.42.0-rc2 is available from:

    https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/tag/v2.42.0-rc2.windows.1

Changes since Git for Windows v2.41.0(3) (July 13th 2023)

New Features

  * Comes with Git v2.42.0-rc2.
  * Comes with cURL v8.2.1.
  * Comes with Git LFS v3.4.0.
  * Comes with OpenSSL v3.1.2.
  * Comes with OpenSSH v9.4.P1.
  * Comes with Git Credential Manager v2.3.1.

Bug Fixes

  * When init.defaultBranch is changed manually in the system config,
    subsequent Git for Windows upgrades would overwrite that change.
    This has been fixed.
  * When running on a remote APFS share, Git would fail, which has been
    fixed.
