Git for Windows 2.20.0 Released

Git for Windows version 2.20.0 was released earlier today.  This release includes both new features and bug fixes.  You can download it from https://gitforwindows.org.  The changelog is on GitHub.  There are 64- and 32-bit downloads, as well as portable versions.

Installing Git for Windows is by far the easiest way to get Git running on Windows computers.  (You can build it yourself, but it's a fair amount of work.)

I've installed the new version on my own machine, and so far, so good.

Enjoy!

WinMerge 2.16.0 Released

WinMerge 2.16.0 has been released. WinMerge is my favorite open source differencing/merging tool for Windows. This release has been a long time coming–the previous stable release, 2.14.0, came out in February 2013. The download page is at http://winmerge.org/downloads/.

The new release has some nice enhancements, including 3-way file comparison and a 64-bit version. I encourage you to give it a try. (I’m not associated in any way with the WinMerge project, but I find it to be an indispensible tool.)

Enjoy!
