Just a heads-up: there was an issue with the process used to generate this
version. Consequently, a large chunk of Git for Windows-specific changes
(bugfixes, interoperability changes, etc.) is missing from this release. 

A fixed release in in progress (see [1] for the latest updates, if you're
interested). In the meantime, please *do not* use this version.

Thanks,
- Victoria
