About
Git for Windows is an open-source software product for the Windows platform. It is centered on Git and is listed in the Developer Tools category. The entry is intended for people looking for Git-related software on Windows. Its name and platform designation help users identify its purpose and compatibility context.
The open-source license is a central part of the product’s catalog identity. It distinguishes Git for Windows from a proprietary tool when users compare available downloads. The listing presents the license alongside the product name, platform, and category so readers can assess whether it matches their development needs. These details provide basic context before a user chooses a download.
MirrorNest distributes Git for Windows by mirroring the official build directly on its own storage. The mirrored build is scanned for malware before it is published. This approach makes the official build available through MirrorNest while retaining its connection to the official release. As a Windows-focused Developer Tools entry, Git for Windows fits the catalog through its platform, open-source status, Git focus, and stated distribution method.
What's new in v2.55.0.windows.5
Changes since Git for Windows v2.55.0(4) (August 11th 2026)
Following the MSYS2 project, on which Git for Windows is based, Windows 8.1 support will be dropped after Git for Windows v2.55.
New Features
- Comes with the MSYS2 runtime (Git for Windows flavor) based on Cygwin v3.6.10.
- Comes with OpenSSH v10.5.P1.
Bug Fixes
- The long-standing bug where Git Bash's screen was cleared after
git.execalledvim(e.g. to edit a commit message) was fixed. - The Bash executables in the 64-bit and ARM64 distributions no longer carry an invalid Authenticode signature.
