Dear Git users,

It is my pleasure to announce that Git for Windows 2.7.0(2) is available from:

	https://git-for-windows.github.io/

I would like to dedicate this release to everyone who helps develop Git
(for Windows), whether it be by contributing code, by reviewing code
contributions, by answering questions here on the mailing lists or on the
bug tracker, by reporting carefully written and complete bug reports that
are a pleasure to read, and to everyone who is supporting us in any other
way. This very much includes helpful or encouraging comments in the
bug tracker. Thank you!  You are awesome. You make it all worth it.

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=interactive that was
    dropped when the pull command 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 ~/.bashrc is detected without a ~/.bash_profile, the generated
    file will now also source ~/.profile if that exists.
  • The environment variable HOME can 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.sslCAInfo
    config 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.
