| Portable Git 2.51.0.2 Oct 2, 2025 |
New Features: Comes with PCRE2 v10.46. Comes with cURL v8.16.0. This addresses a bug where fetches/pushes could fail with failed to read data from server: SEC_E_CONTEXT_EXPIRED (0x80090317) under certain circumstances. Also included: a back-port of a fix for a bug where connection failures were mistakenly reported as time-outs. Comes with Tig v2.6.0. Comes with MinTTY v3.8.1. Comes with OpenSSL v3.5.3. Bug Fixes: The auto-updater now shows Git for Windows icon in the notification also on Windows/ARM64. git clone/git fetch now deals more gracefully with directory / file conflicts when the files backend is used for ref storage, by failing only the ones that are involved in the conflict while allowing others. This is a regression in Git v2.51.0 that was reported in Git for Windows and independently also to the Git mailing list. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch kn/refs-files-case-insensitive. Support for pathspecs in diff --no-index was somewhat buggy, which has been fixed. git sparse-checkout subcommand learned a new clean action to prune otherwise unused working-tree files that are outside the areas of interest. An earlier version of this had been integrated into Microsoft Git already. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch ds/sparse-checkout-clean. git rebase -i failed to clean-up the commit log message when the command commits the final one in a chain of "fixup" commands, which has been corrected. Backported from Git's topic branch pw/rebase-i-cleanup-fix. git subtree did not work correctly when splitting squashed subtrees, which has been improved. Backported from Git's topic branch cs/subtree-squash-split-fix. Some among git add -p and friends ignored color.diff and/or color.ui configuration variables, which is an old regression, which has been corrected. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch jk/add-i-color. A corner-case bug in git log -L... has been corrected. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch sg/line-log-boundary-fix |
| Portable Git 2.50.0 Jun 18, 2025 |
New Features: Comes with Git v2.50.0. Comes with MinTTY v3.7.8. Comes with OpenSSH v10.0.P1. Comes with cURL v8.14.1. Comes with the MSYS2 runtime (Git for Windows flavor) based on Cygwin v3.6.3. Bug Fixes: On Windows Server 2022, Git v2.48.1 introduced a regression where it failed to write files on ReFS drives, which was fixed. Git for Windows 2.48.1 introduced a regression when fetching long branches under core.longPaths = true, which was fixed. Git for Windows' installer used a non-writable file for testing custom editors, which was fixed. |
| Portable Git 2.49.0 Mar 17, 2025 |
New Features: Comes with Git v2.49.0. Comes with OpenSSH v9.9.P2. Comes with PCRE2 v10.45. The previously-experimental --full-name-hash option has been accepted into upstream Git as --name-hash-version=2 and is no longer experimental. The git backfill command has been accepted into upstream Git; Its --batch-size=<n> option has been renamed to --min-batch-size=<n>, though. Bug Fixes: A change in upstream Git v2.48.0 broke renaming symlinks, which was fixed. On a recent Insider Windows version, users experienced the message: "Cygwin WARNING: Couldn't compute FAST_CWD pointer", which has been fixed. A bug has been fixed that, when calling git add -p from VS Code's internal terminal, after using the edit command, caused the internal terminal got stuck and no further command was accepted. The syntax highlighting of the nano editor was recently disabled in Git for Windows by mistake, which was fixed. |
