microsoft/git v2.33.0.vfs.0.0

on GitHub

Major Updates

• This includes Git for Windows 2.33.0.
• The merge strategy default is changed from recursive to ort which should present significant performance improvements for commands such as git merge, git rebase, and git cherry-pick. Huge thanks to external contributor @newren for creating this new merge strategy!
• Several small improvements to the Scalar CLI are included.
• Our process for creating releases and making them available via winget, brew, and apt-get continues to improve.
