MinGit is an intentionally minimal, non-interactive distribution of Git for Windows, with third-party applications as its intended audience.

MinGit is a minimal, lightweight version of Git for Windows that includes only the core Git command-line tools. It's designed for automated environments, CI/CD pipelines, and users who need basic Git functionality without the full Git for Windows package, which includes Git Bash, GUI tools, and other utilities. MinGit offers a smaller footprint and can be used portably without installation.

Release Notes

Changes since Git for Windows v2.53.0 (February 2nd 2026) This is a security fix release, addressing CVE-2025-66413.

  • CVE-2025-66413, Git for Windows: When a user clones a repository from an attacker-controlled server, Git may attempt NTLM authentication and disclose the user's NTLMv2 hash to the remote server. Since NTLM hashing is weak, the captured hash can potentially be brute-forced to recover the user's credentials. This is addressed by disabling NTLM authentication by default. ──────────────────────────────────┬──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Filename │SHA-256 ──────────────────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Git-2.53.0.2-64-bit.exe │194362cf24cd0db4b573096108460a34c7f80a20c5f2aa60d06ef817be9f73a1 ──────────────────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Git-2.53.0.2-arm64.exe │07f74afb072a95993d58fbcc3979f7e53ce0cfc10d574f484766c54f73e21d1b ──────────────────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── PortableGit-2.53.0.2-64-bit.7z.exe│5f4f76c7d5036ea3b29fbadedcc510733b3a0ee8da57a36796e2e57a466be964 ──────────────────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── PortableGit-2.53.0.2-arm64.7z.exe │cd4bb8b1c589051cc5873e900868a31329684ec1a50a55a639bf292c2e2d9580 ──────────────────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── MinGit-2.53.0.2-64-bit.zip │d4bf83d6a860ccae9af44e508e1e00a39f09db6fa78a9ba5543b94d87ca22a29 ──────────────────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── MinGit-2.53.0.2-arm64.zip │842d50edc6bbcf39693e60a8ebb9dabb89b96b932b63aae12d218522b3e497f3 ──────────────────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── MinGit-2.53.0.2-32-bit.zip │b47bf32db9de7fc9093a9590bc43a15a15b7c2a2070ba84ce0f839021ac2240a ──────────────────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── MinGit-2.53.0.2-busybox-64-bit.zip│d105843eb1ce4ee543c9d30b1a028867ec662aac80a5b301058bcaa99966d4f0 ──────────────────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── MinGit-2.53.0.2-busybox-32-bit.zip│3bfa7417157c5206433abeb24797ad17f1ca1962ddbaffd867e7860920cbf63e ──────────────────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Git-2.53.0.2-64-bit.tar.bz2 │b17726d9b0041463a9e7b2bb98103cd6a18447d73b65e7b60c43e7d2fb5dea22 ──────────────────────────────────┼──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Git-2.53.0.2-arm64.tar.bz2 │91508bfbeb773806a1f7d9a980b04b136938fa9bbc557e1c9023f34bb54749b0 ──────────────────────────────────┴────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
