Changes since Git for Windows v2.43.0 (November 20th 2023)
Git for Windows will drop support for Windows 7 and for Windows 8 in the next versions, see the announcement of MSYS2 on which Git for Windows relies for components such as Bash and Perl.
Please also note that the 32-bit variant of Git for Windows is deprecated; Its last official release is planned for 2025.
New Features
- Comes with Git v2.44.0-rc0.
- Comes with gnupg v2.2.42.
- Comes with libfido2 v1.14.0.
- Comes with the MSYS2 runtime (Git for Windows flavor) based on Cygwin v3.4.10.
- Comes with Perl v5.38.2.
- Git for Windows learned to detect and use native Windows support for ANSI sequences, which allows using 24-bit colors in terminal windows.
- Comes with Git LFS v3.4.1.
- The repository viewer Tig that is included in Git for Windows can now be called also directly from PowerShell/CMD.
- Comes with OpenSSH v9.6.P1.
- Comes with Bash v5.2.26.
- Comes with GNU TLS v3.8.3.
- Comes with OpenSSL v3.2.1.
- Comes with cURL v8.6.0.
- Comes with GNU Privacy Guard v2.4.4.
Bug Fixes
- The 32-bit variant of Git for Windows was missing some MSYS2 runtime updates, which was addressed; Do note 32-bit support is phased out.
- The Git for Windows installer showed cut-off text in some setups. This has been fixed.
- The
git credential-manager --helpcommand previously would not find a page to display in the web browser, which has been fixed.
