It is not quite *necessary* to upgrade, but you will get a couple nice new features and nice bug fixes. But the bug you reported is still there ;-) > I just reported the same here: > https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1623 Thank you for opening this bug report. There are other bug reports describing related issues; they might even be covered by the same fixes. Assuming that you are eager enough to see this fixed, I started describing how to go about building Git for Windows, where the code is located that need to be fixed, and how to go about fixing it. Thanks, Johannes
