New Features

- The installer now offers VS Code Insiders as option for Git's default editor if it is installed.
- The vim configuration was modernized.

- Comes with cURL v7.60.0.

Bug Fixes
- Fixed an issue with recursive clone (CVE 2018-11235).
- Aliases that expand to shell commands can now take arguments containing curly brackets.
- Ctrl+C is now handled in Git Bash in a sophisticated way: it emulates the way Ctrl+C is handled in Git CMD, but in a fine-grained way.
- Based on the the new Ctrl+C handling in Git Bash, pressing Ctrl+C while
git logis running will only stop Git from traversing the commit history, but keep the pager running. - Git was fixed to work correctly in Docker volumes inside Windows containers.
- Tab completion of
git status -- <partial-path>is now a lot faster. - Git for Windows now creates directory symlinks correctly when asked to.
- The option to disable revocation checks with Secure Channel which was introduced in v2.16.1(2) now really works.
- Git no longer enters an infinite loop when misspelling
git statusas, say,git Status.
