Ran the installer, selected the option to not modify the path & the path was modified anyway... it removed git from the path (it was there from a prior install).  I should NOT have to manually fix my path after an update, even the option to add git to the path should be smart enough to recognize it's there already & leave the path unmodified (sorry, I know that's 2 different bugs in 1 email, but they are related).
