Git for Windows 2.39.0

on GitHub

Changes since Git for Windows v2.38.1 (October 18th 2022)

New Features

• Comes with Git v2.39.0.
• Comes with OpenSSL v1.1.1s.
• Comes with cURL v7.86.0.
• The Portable Git edition (which comes as a self-extracting 7-Zip archive) now uses the latest 7-Zip version to self-extract.
• Comes with OpenSSH v9.1p1.
• It is now possible to generate and use SSH keys protected by security keys (AKA FIDO devices) via Windows Hello, e.g. via ssh-keygen.exe -t ecdsa-sk.
• Portable Git no longer configures color.diff, color.status and color.branch individually, but configures color.ui instead, which makes it easier to override the default.
• Comes with GNU TLS v3.7.8.
• Comes with Git Credential Manager Core v2.0.877.
• Comes with MinTTY v3.6.2.
• Comes with Bash v5.2 patchlevel 12.

Bug Fixes

• The Git executables (e.g. git.exe itself) used to have incomplete version information recorded in their resources, which has been fixed.
• A regression introduced in Git for Windows v2.38.0 that prevented git.exe from running in Windows Nano Server containers was fixed.
