In this release:

  • Redesigned Askpass to look more like Visual Studio 2017.
  • Added support for adding new SSH hosts via Askpass.
  • Added environment variable support for all configuration options.
  • Added support for include.path directives within Git configuration files.
  • Added caching for VSTS tenant identities to improve performance when authenticating with visualstudio.com.
  • Added support for Git's XDG configuration file.
  • Improved the non-interactive logon for VSTS accounts.
  • Separated the VSTS specific code from the more general authentication code, and placed into a new Microsoft.Vsts.Authentication.dll.
  • Updated the Microsoft.IdentityModel (aka ADAL) packages.
  • Upgraded InnoSetup minimum version required to take advantages of security issues resolved in the latest version.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where authority=basic was ignored when the host could support NTLM.
  • Fixed an issue where Askpass would get confused when the URL contained a username.
  • Fixed issues related to users having a %HOME% value different from %UserProfile%.

To install the Git Credential Manager, download and double-click the GCMW-1.9.0.exe installer. It is that easy, it will even install Git for Windows 2.12.0 and the Microsoft .Net Framework for you if necessary.

For non-installation or custom installation needs, download the gcmw-v1.9.0.zip archive and expand its contents. Use the included install.cmd or options provided via git-credential-manager install to complete setup.
