Subject: Announcing Git for Windows 2.6.1
Date: Mon, 05 Oct 2015 23:02:58 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <517f6b5dd3edb6935bdba9f8f24f474b@dscho.org> (raw)
Dear Git users,
it is my pleasure to announce version 2.6.1 of Git for Windows, available from https://git-for-windows.github.io/.
Changes since Git for Windows 2.6.0 (September 29th 2015)
New Features
• Comes with Git 2.6.1
• The installer now writes the file /etc/install-options.txt to
record which options were chosen at install time.
• Replaces git flow with the AVH edition which is maintained
actively, in surprising and disappointing contrast to Vincent
Driessen's very own project.
Bug Fixes
• The PATH variable is now really left alone when choosing the "Use
Git from Git Bash only" option in the installer. Note that
upgrading Git for Windows will call the previous version's
uninstaller, which might still have that bug.
• Git GUI's Registry>Create Desktop Icon now generates correct
shortcuts.
• The antiword utility to render Word documents for use in git diff
now works correctly.
• In 64-bit installations, we no longer set a pack size limit by
default.
• When installing Git for Windows as regular user, the installer no
longer comptries to create privileged registry keys.
Ciao,
Johannes
