Description
Git is a source code management tool. When cloning from a server (or fetching, or pushing), informational or error messages are transported from the remote Git process to the client via the so-called "sideband channel". These messages will be prefixed with "remote:" and printed directly to the standard error output. Typically, this standard error output is connected to a terminal that understands ANSI escape sequences, which Git did not protect against. Most modern terminals support control sequences that can be used by a malicious actor to hide and misrepresent information, or to mislead the user into executing untrusted scripts. As requested on the git-security mailing list, the patches are under discussion on the public mailing list. Users are advised to update as soon as possible. Users unable to upgrade should avoid recursive clones unless they are from trusted sources.

ChocolateyGit for Windows focuses on offering a lightweight, native set of tools that bring the full feature set of the Git SCM to Windows while providing appropriate user interfaces for experienced Git users and novices alike.
## Features
- **Git BASH**: Git for Windows provides a BASH emulation used to run Git from the command line. *NIX users should feel right at home, as the BASH emulation behaves just like the "git" command in LINUX and UNIX environments.
- **Git GUI**: As Windows users commonly expect graphical user interfaces, Git for Windows also provides the Git GUI, a powerful alternative to Git BASH, offering a graphical version of just about every Git command line function, as well as comprehensive visual diff tools.
- **Shell Integration**: Simply right-click on a folder in Windows Explorer to access the BASH or GUI.
## Package parameters
See the [Git Package Parameters documentation page](https://github.com/chocolatey-community/chocolatey-packages/blob/master/automatic/git.install/ARGUMENTS.md).
Example for passing in package parameters:
`choco install git.install --params "'/GitAndUnixToolsOnPath /WindowsTerminal /NoAutoCrlf'"`
## Notes
- The package uses default install options minus desktop icons.
- **If the package is out of date please check [Version History](#versionhistory) for the latest submitted version. If you have a question, please ask it in [Chocolatey Community Package Discussions](https://github.com/chocolatey-community/chocolatey-packages/discussions) or raise an issue on the [Chocolatey Community Packages Repository](https://github.com/chocolatey-community/chocolatey-packages/issues) if you have problems with the package. Disqus comments will generally not be responded to.**
- Starting with version 2.49.0, installers for 32bit platforms are no longer available. If this is required, use an older version of the package.
RubyGemsThe git gem provides an API that can be used to
create, read, and manipulate Git repositories by wrapping system calls to the git
command line. The API can be used for working with Git in complex interactions
including branching and merging, object inspection and manipulation, history, patch
generation and more.
