Where to find git release notes? [closed]

Question

I'm having trouble finding what's new in the latest release of git. For example, I could not find any info on git's main github page.

Where can one find git's release notes (ideally for all releases, but at least the latest one)?

Answer 1

Git

Git release notes can be found under Documentation/RelNotes folder on github.

You can get to the files by going to git's main repo at https://github.com/git/git and then to Documentation folder, then RelNotes folder. Please note:

1. 2.23 is more recent than 2.4, 2.10, etc.
2. The files are ordered alphabetically so the latest release is not at the bottom.

The number of the latest release can be found by going to the Releases tab in the git repo.
