Git for Windows 2.8.0
Changes since Git for Windows v2.7.4 (March 18th 2016)
New Features
- Comes with Git v2.8.0.
- Comes with the Git Credential Manager v1.2.2.
- The FSCache feature (which was labeled experimental for quite some time) is now enabled by default.
- Git is now added to the
PATH
by default (previously, the default was for Git to be available only from Git Bash/CMD). - The installer now offers to launch the Git Bash right away.
Bug Fixes
- The previous workaround for the blurred link to the Git Credential Manager was fixed so that the link is neither blurry nor overlapping.
- The installer now changes the label of the
Next
button toInstall
on the last wizard page before installing.
