I tried that version on 64bit Win7. Somehow the PATH env. variable does no longer get set correctly.

On git-for-windows 2.10.2 my PATH (inside git bash) contains ~75 Entries. With the above installer I only get ~17 ! (Inside cmd.exe I get 61 entries. I set some more entries with by ~/.bashrc)

It seems that all entries that contain a path with whitespace (e.g. 'c:\program files (x86)' ) are no longer there.

Any ideas ?

Thanks,
  Stefan
