Git for Windows 2.37.0

on GitHub

Changes since Git for Windows v2.36.1 (May 9th 2022)

New Features

• Comes with Git v2.37.0.
• Many anti-malware products seem to have problems with our MSYS2 runtime, leading to problems running e.g. git subtree. We added a workaround that hopefully helps in most of these scenarios.
• Comes with MSYS2 runtime (Git for Windows flavor) based on Cygwin 3.3.5.
• Comes with PCRE2 v10.40.
• Comes with Git LFS v3.2.0.
• Comes with GNU TLS v3.7.6.
• SSH's CBC ciphers, which were re-enabled in 2017 to better support Azure Repos have again been disabled by default because Azure Repos does not require them any longer.
• Comes with OpenSSL v1.1.1p.
• Comes with Git Credential Manager Core v2.0.779.
• Comes with cURL v7.84.0.

Bug Fixes

• The Git for Windows-only --show-ignored-directory option of git status, which was deprecated a long time ago, was finally removed.
• A crash when running Git for Windows in Wine was fixed.
• A bug in the interaction between FSCache and parallel checkout was fixed.
• Cloning to network shares failed on some network file systems, which was fixed.
• When Git indicates an unsafe directory due to the file system (e.g. FAT32) being unable to record ownership, Git now gives better hints.
