Git 2.3.0, the latest major version of the Git command-line utility, introduces several notable features and improvements aimed at enhancing performance, convenience, and security. Among the highlights is the "push to deploy" feature, which allows developers to push changes directly to a server's repository, automatically updating the current branch if no local modifications exist, though it may not suit all projects due to potential deployment inconsistencies. Additionally, a new cloning option enables faster data transfer by borrowing objects from existing local clones, while Git's default push behavior has been made more conservative to prevent accidental pushes to incorrect branches. The update also introduces a flexible SSH invocation via the GIT_SSH_COMMAND variable, improved credential handling for automated scripts, and other minor enhancements such as smarter path management during checkouts and force options for branch deletion and renaming. This release also addresses a critical security vulnerability fixed in December, underscoring the importance of upgrading to ensure system security.
