Dear fans of Git, this mail brings to you the good news that Git for Windows is available in a new version: 1.8.5.2-preview20131230 Many, many thanks go to the tireless developers working on this particularly hard port of Git. Changes since Git-1.8.4-preview20130916 New Features - Comes with Git 1.8.5.2 plus Windows-specific patches. - Windows-specific patches are now grouped into pseudo-branches which should make future development more robust despite the fact that we have had less than stellar success getting the Windows-specific patches accepted by upstream git.git. - Works around more path length limitations (pull request #86) - Has an optional stat() cache toggled via core.fscache (pull request #107) Bugfixes - Lots of installer fixes - git-cmd: Handle home directory on a different drive correctly (pull request #146) - git-cmd: add a helper to work with the ssh agent (pull request #135) - Git-Cheetah: prevent duplicate menu entries (pull request #7) - No longer replaces dos2unix with hd2u (a more powerful, but slightly incompatible version of dos2unix) In keeping with the fine tradition of making a release on the eve of a holiday, and immediately going on vacation, it is my pleasure to wish you all a happy new year, Johannes -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
