This very much includes helpful or encouraging comments in the\nbug tracker. Thank you!  You are awesome. You make it all worth it.\n\nChanges since Git for Windows v2.7.0 (January 5th 2016)\n\nNew Features\n\n  • To stave off exploits, Git for Windows now uses Address Space\n    Layout Randomization (ASLR) and Data Execution Prevention (DEP).\n  • Git for Windows' support for git pull --rebase=interactive that was\n    dropped when the pull command was rewritten in C, was resurrected.\n  • The installers are now dual signed with SHA-2 and SHA-1\n    certificates.\n  • The uninstaller is signed now, too.\n\nBug Fixes\n\n  • When installing as administrator, we no longer offer the option to\n    install quiicklaunch icons because quicklaunch icons can only be\n    installed per-user.\n  • If a ~/.bashrc is detected without a ~/.bash_profile, the generated\n    file will now also source ~/.profile if that exists.\n  • The environment variable HOME can now be used to set the home\n    directory even when running with accounts that are part of a\n    different domain than the current (non-domain-joined) machine (in\n    which case the MSys2 runtime has no way to emulate POSIX-style\n    UIDs).\n  • Git can now fetch and push via HTTPS even when the http.sslCAInfo\n    config variable was unset.\n  • Git for Windows is now handling the case gracefully where the\n    current user has no permission to list the parent of the current\n    directory.\n  • More file locking issues (\"Unlink of file ... failed. Should I try\n    again?\") were fixed.\n\nFilename | SHA-256\n-------- | -------\nGit-2.7.0.2-64-bit.exe | c9f0ba628d79886427e05b6b2833f65630ccfc49ecceaab7cff0c6723d1d6e47\nGit-2.7.0.2-32-bit.exe | 8f14d50a1950264a7fd53128a81884f5757ca2b645e092ce81122993433657f8\nPortableGit-2.7.0.2-64-bit.7z.exe | aa29dcfffda49bde58c84d34cec8e38f4ea85d97c5bb789a56e00ab86a60de5e\nPortableGit-2.7.0.2-32-bit.7z.exe | b5af00c5bcffd67c57beb9ce379a8080e44a2f9fe05650a8d7d460382832cbea\nGit-2.7.0.2-64-bit.tar.bz2 | 9ed65a54b2586059a53ce64a57d2faa99386b282dd427a4a7e5474feb00d0851\nGit-2.7.0.2-32-bit.tar.bz2 | a9c2daf66ed9864146945e5e2e0970a13cd9140b0fb0327a668e2550a7cc24e8\n\nCiao,\nJohannes"}]}
