Git for Windows 2.7.0(2)
Changes since Git for Windows v2.7.0 (January 5th 2016)
New Features
- To stave off exploits, Git for Windows now uses Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) and Data Execution Prevention (DEP).
- Git for Windows' support for
git pull --rebase=interactivethat was dropped when thepullcommand was rewritten in C, was resurrected. - The installers are now dual signed with SHA-2 and SHA-1 certificates.
- The uninstaller is signed now, too.
Bug Fixes
- When installing as administrator, we no longer offer the option to install quiicklaunch icons because quicklaunch icons can only be installed per-user.
- If a
~/.bashrcis detected without a~/.bash_profile, the generated file will now also source~/.profileif that exists. - The environment variable
HOMEcan now be used to set the home directory even when running with accounts that are part of a different domain than the current (non-domain-joined) machine (in which case the MSys2 runtime has no way to emulate POSIX-style UIDs). - Git can now fetch and push via HTTPS even when the
http.sslCAInfoconfig variable was unset. - Git for Windows is now handling the case gracefully where the current user has no permission to list the parent of the current directory.
- More file locking issues ("Unlink of file ... failed. Should I try again?") were fixed.
