Pre-release to test fixes for git-for-windows#981 and git-for-windows… …#987
Git for Windows v2.11.0
Changes since Git for Windows v2.10.2 (November 2nd 2016)
New Features
* Comes with Git v2.11.0.
* Performance of git add in large worktrees was improved.
* A new, experimental, builtin version of the difftool is available
as an opt-in feature.
* Support has been added to generate project files for Visual Studio
2010 and later.
Bug Fixes
* The preload-index feature now behaves much better in conjunction
with sparse checkouts.
* When encountering a symbolic link, Git now always tries to read it,
not only when core.symlinks = true.
* The regression where Git would not interpret non-ASCII characters
passed from a CMD window correctly has been fixed.
* Performance of the cache of case-insensitive file names has been
improved.
* When building with MS Visual C, release builds are now properly
optimized.
* git cvsexportcommit now also works with CVSNT.
* Git's Perl no longer gets confused by externally-set PERL5LIB.
* The uninstaller no longer leaves an empty Git\mingw64 folder behind
.
* The installer now actually records whether the user chose to enable
or disable the Git Credential Manager.
* A certain scenario that could cause a crash in cherry-pick no
longer causes that.
Second preview of Git for Windows v2.11.0 release candidate 0 This reflects Git for Windows' current `master`, this time *really* rebased to upstream Git's v2.11.0-rc0 (the earlier preview was incorrect, as noticed by Lars Schneider)..
