Version 2.36.1-1 of Git has been uploaded to the Cygwin distribution
servers, and should be coming soon to a mirror near you.

Git is a free and open source distributed version control system
designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with
speed and efficiency.

This is an update to the latest upstream release, and includes the
following packages:

- git
- git-cvs
- git-debuginfo
- git-email
- git-gui
- gitk
- git-p4
- git-svn

Key extracts from the changelog:

> Fixes since v2.36
> -----------------
> 
>  * "git submodule update" without pathspec should silently skip an
>    uninitialized submodule, but it started to become noisy by mistake.
> 
>  * "diff-tree --stdin" has been broken for about a year, but 2.36
>    release broke it even worse by breaking running the command with
>    <pathspec>, which in turn broke "gitk" and got noticed.  This has
>    been corrected by aligning its behaviour to that of "log".
> 
>  * Regression fix for 2.36 where "git name-rev" started to sometimes
>    reference strings after they are freed.
> 
>  * "git show <commit1> <commit2>... -- <pathspec>" lost the pathspec
>    when showing the second and subsequent commits, which has been
>    corrected.
> 
>  * "git fast-export -- <pathspec>" lost the pathspec when showing the
>    second and subsequent commits, which has been corrected.
> 
>  * "git format-patch <args> -- <pathspec>" lost the pathspec when
>    showing the second and subsequent commits, which has been
>    corrected.
