Changes since Git for Windows v2.27.0 (June 1st 2020)
New Features
- Comes with Git v2.28.0-rc2.
- Comes with subversion v1.14.0.
- Comes with the designated successor of Git Credential Manager for Windows (GCM for Windows), the cross-platform Git Credential Manager Core. For now, this is opt-in, with the idea of eventually retiring GCM for Windows.
- Comes with cURL v7.71.1.
- Comes with Perl v5.32.0.
- Comes with MSYS2 runtime (Git for Windows flavor) based on Cygwin 3.1.6 (including the improvements of Cygwin 3.1.5).
- Comes with GNU Privacy Guard v2.2.21.
Bug Fixes
- A typo was fixed in the installer.
- The new
git pull
behavior option now records thefast-forward
choice correctly. - In v2.27.0,
git svn
was broken completely, which has been fixed. - Some Git operations could end up with bogus modified symbolic links (where
git status
would report changes butgit diff
would not), which is now fixed. - When reinstalling (or upgrading) Git for Windows, the "Pseudo Console Support" choice is now remembered correctly.
- Under certain circumstances, the Git Bash window (MinTTY) would crash frequently, which has been addressed.
- When pseudo console support is enabled, the VIM editor sometimes had troubles accepting certain keystrokes, which was fixed.
- Due to a bug, it was not possible to disable Pseudo Console support by reinstalling with the checkbox turned off, which has been fixed.
- A bug with enabled Pseudo Console support, where
git add -i
would not quit the file selection mode upon an empty input, has been fixed. - The cleanup mode called "scissors" in
git commit
now handles CR/LF line endings correctly. - When cloning into an existing directory, under certain circumstances, the
core.worktree
option was set unnecessarily. This has been fixed.
