Git for Windows v2.53.0-rc2.windows.1

Changes since Git for Windows v2.52.0 (November 17th 2025)

New Features

• Comes with Git v2.53.0-rc2.
• Pressing the Tab key in an empty line in Git Bash no longer causes the session to "freeze".
• Git for Windows' installer is now built by InnoSetup v6.6.1.
• Comes with cURL v8.18.0.
• Microsoft Edit can now be specified as Git editor.
• Comes with Git Credential Manager v2.7.0, the "anniversary release" after one release-less year, which brings native x64 and ARM64 binaries for the respective flavors of Git for Windows.
• Upgrades the memory allocator mimalloc that is used by Git for Windows to v2.2.7.
• Comes with the MSYS2 runtime (Git for Windows flavor) based on Cygwin v3.6.6.
• Comes with OpenSSL v3.5.5.

Bug Fixes

• The installer of Git for Windows v2.52 showed clipped text in some setups, which was fixed.
• When calling Microsoft Store apps, their standard I/O is now set up correctly (meaning: You can call an interactive Python interpreter without the winpty hack mentioned in the release notes' Known Issues).
• The astextplain tool (which is used by Git for Windows to generate diffs of .pdf and .doc files) used to handle empty files gracefully. This behavior is now reinstated.

Git for Windows v2.51.1.windows.1

Changes since Git for Windows v2.51.0(2) (September 29th 2025)

This is a security release! Git LFS (which is enabled by default in Git for Windows) fixes CVE-2025-26625 (Severity rated High, 8.6 / 10) in v3.7.1. Please only clone or pull from repositories you trust until you upgraded.

Due to persistent maintenance challenges and the community's limited engagement and usage, git svn support in Git for Windows will be dropped from the next major Git for Windows release.

Note that git flow is no longer shipped with Git for Windows, after a version had been distributed that had been languishing for years. Even the original, years-stale Git Flow project has been archived.

New Features

• Comes with Git v2.51.1.
• Comes with Git LFS v3.7.1, addressing CVE-2025-26625.
• Comes with OpenSSL v3.5.4.
• Comes with the MSYS2 runtime (Git for Windows flavor) based on Cygwin v3.6.5.
• Comes with OpenSSH v10.2.P1.
• Drops git flow.

Bug Fixes

• A potential memory corruption in the optional wincred credential helper was fixed.

Git for Windows v2.51.0.windows.2

Changes since Git for Windows v2.51.0 (August 19th 2025)

New Features

• Comes with PCRE2 v10.46.
• Comes with cURL v8.16.0. This addresses a bug where fetches/pushes could fail with failed to read data from server: SEC_E_CONTEXT_EXPIRED (0x80090317) under certain circumstances. Also included: a back-port of a fix for a bug where connection failures were mistakenly reported as time-outs.
• Comes with Tig v2.6.0.
• Comes with MinTTY v3.8.1.
• Comes with OpenSSL v3.5.3.

Bug Fixes

• The auto-updater now shows Git for Windows icon in the notification also on Windows/ARM64.
• git clone/git fetch now deals more gracefully with directory / file conflicts when the files backend is used for ref storage, by failing only the ones that are involved in the conflict while allowing others. This is a regression in Git v2.51.0 that was reported in Git for Windows and independently also to the Git mailing list. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch kn/refs-files-case-insensitive.
• Support for pathspecs in diff --no-index was somewhat buggy, which has been fixed.
• git sparse-checkout subcommand learned a new clean action to prune otherwise unused working-tree files that are outside the areas of interest. An earlier version of this had been integrated into Microsoft Git already. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch ds/sparse-checkout-clean.
• git rebase -i failed to clean-up the commit log message when the command commits the final one in a chain of "fixup" commands, which has been corrected. Backported from Git's topic branch pw/rebase-i-cleanup-fix.
• git subtree did not work correctly when splitting squashed subtrees, which has been improved. Backported from Git's topic branch cs/subtree-squash-split-fix.
• Some among git add -p and friends ignored color.diff and/or color.ui configuration variables, which is an old regression, which has been corrected. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch jk/add-i-color.
• A corner-case bug in git log -L... has been corrected. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch sg/line-log-boundary-fixes.
• A broken or malicious git fetch can say that it has the same object for many many times, and the upload-pack serving it can exhaust memory storing them redundantly, which has been corrected. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch ps/upload-pack-oom-protection.
• Fixes multiple crashes around midx write-out codepaths. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch ds/midx-write-fixes.
• git repack --path-walk lost objects in some corner cases, which has been corrected. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch ds/path-walk-repack-fix.
• Under a race against another process that is repacking the repository, especially a partially cloned one, git fetch may mistakenly think some objects we do have are missing, which has been corrected. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch jk/fetch-check-graph-objects-fix.
• Various options to git diff that makes comparison ignore certain aspects of the differences (like "space changes are ignored", "differences in lines that match these regular expressions are ignored") did not work well with --name-only and friends. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch ly/diff-name-only-with-diff-from-content.
• git diff --no-index run inside a subdirectory under control of a Git repository operated at the top of the working tree and stripped the prefix from the output, and oddballs like "-" (stdin) did not work correctly because of it. Correct the set-up by undoing what the set-up sequence did to the current working directory and prefix. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch jc/diff-no-index-in-subdir.
• Various bugs about rename handling in "ort" merge strategy have been fixed. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch en/ort-rename-fixes.
• git push had a code path that led to BUG() but it should have reported a regular failure, as it is a response to a usual but invalid end-user action to attempt pushing an object that does not exist. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch dl/push-missing-object-error.
• git refs migrate to migrate the reflog entries from a refs backend to another had a handful of bugs squashed. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch ps/reflog-migrate-fixes.
• During interactive rebase, using drop on a merge commit lead to an error, which was incorrect. This was fixed by merging Git's topic branch js/rebase-i-allow-drop-on-a-merge.
