this mail informs you that Git for Windows 1.6.4 is out.  It is less 
well tested than the previous versions, mainly because I was busy with 
other things and asked for help with testing on the msysGit mailing 
list and I am very impatient.

I'm still too busy, but since I saw your email arriving live and I've
Vista here, I kept some minutes for you :)

Git Release Notes (Git-1.6.4-preview20090729)
Last update: 29 July 2009

bad news: here the installation complains around the end (all default answers)

Uh oh.

"Could not set CR/LF behavior: core.autoCRLF true"

Using git gui works, calling gitk from it works.
But git bash initiates a shell complaining:

Ah, you are not installing Git for Windows, but msysGit.

Now the question is if full or net.

I will not guess, especially since I am dead tired after that hour it 
always takes to make a new release.

Apparently, git binaries are not in the path. I'll check on a winXP
and win2003 environments asap.

Pff.

I think it is the lack of libcrypto.dll and libssl.dll.  And now I know 
you used the net installer.

As I said, would have been nice to be precise.

Ciao,
