Git for Windows v2.25.0
Changes since Git for Windows v2.24.1(2) (December 10th 2019)
New Features
* Comes with Git v2.25.0.
* Comes with GNU Privacy Guard v2.2.19.
* Comes with Git LFS v2.9.2.
* When upgrading Git for Windows, by default the installer now only
shows pages with previously-unseen options.
* Comes with cURL v7.68.0.
Bug Fixes
* The startup file for GNU nano, which had been included with DOS
line endings (and therefore upset nano) is now included with Unix
line endings again.
* Git for Windows now fails as expected when trying to check out
files with illegal characters in their file names.
* Git now works properly when inside a symlinked work tree.
* Repositories with old commits containing backslashes in file names
can now be fetched/cloned again (but Git will still refuse to check
out files with backslashes in their file names).
* Git GUI can now deal with uninitialized submodules (this was a
Windows-specific bug).
* It is again possible to clone repositories where some past revision
contained file names containing backslashes (Git will of course
still refuse to check out such revisions).

Git for Windows v2.24.0
Changes since Git for Windows v2.23.0 (August 17th 2019)
Note! As a consequence of making git config --system work as expected,
the location of the system config is now C:\Program Files\Git\etc\
gitconfig (no longer split between C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\etc\
gitconfig and C:\ProgramData\Git\config), and likewise the location of
the system gitattributes is now C:\Program Files\Git\etc\gitattributes
(no longer C:\Program Files\Git\mingw64\etc\gitattributes). Any manual
modifications to C:\ProgramData\Git\config need to be ported manually.
New Features
* Comes with Git v2.24.0.
* Comes with cURL v7.66.0.
* Comes with Git Credential Manager v1.20.0.
* Comes with OpenSSH v8.1p1.
* Comes with OpenSSL v1.1.1d.
* Comes with Git LFS v2.9.0.
Bug Fixes
* The shell construct <(<command>), which was broken in v2.23.0 (/dev
/fd/<n>: no such file or directory), was fixed.
* The default config no longer skips git-lfs downloads.
* Starting with cURL v7.66.0, $HOME/.netrc can be used instead of
$HOME/_netrc (but it will still fall back to looking for the
latter).
* The installer's "ProductVersion" is now consistent with older Git
for Windows versions'.
* Makes git config --system work like you think it should.
* The (still experimental) built-in git add -p no longer gets
confused about incomplete lines (i.e. a file's l last line that
does not end in a Line Feed).
* A buffer overrun in the code to determine which files need to be
marked as hidden was plugged.
* The support for sendpack.sideband that was removed by mistake was
re-introduced, to support git push via the git:// protocol again.
* git stash no longer records skip-worktree files as deleted after
resolving merge conflicts in them.
* The Git for Windows installer no longer complains about a downgrade
when upgrading from an -rc version, i.e. from a pre-release leading
up to the next major version.
