Subject: Git versioning policy - PatchMyPC compatibility on Windows
Message-ID: <c760038f-7c50-73df-5187-a186868c995b@gmail.com>

Hi,

I use PatchMyPC to keep all my applications up to date on Windows but 
there is one application that is never properly detected as up to 
date... and it is Git as you guessed.

According to Justin Chalfant, Director of Engineering of PatchMyPC, Git 
version "number" / identifier is not "standard".
https://patchmypc.com/forum/index.php?topic=3032.msg8211#msg8211

PatchMyPC seems not to like that:
Git version identifier = version number + platform specific identifier

command "git version" currently returns:
git version 2.23.0.windows.1

git executables (like git-cmd.exe for instance) displays this "File 
version" on Windows:
2.23.0.1

What are your thoughts? And can you answer to Justin Chalfant on 
PatchMyPC forum?

Regards,

Audric GUERIN
