Mattias,

A security bug was found recently. (Git for Windows) V1.9.4 etc.are all 
vulnerable particularly to public facing servers (as a vector for the bug).

Have a look at

and

Fixes are available for all OS's.

  Subject: [git-users] Is version match using Linux server and Windows client 
necessary?


  Hi!


  I have set up an environment for Git using a central repository on a server 
running SuSE 12, and clients running Win 7.


  I did sync the versions so both server and clients are running 1.9.4. Is this 
necessary or should I upgrade the server to 2.2.0 as soon as possible?


  On upgrade - in which order is best to upgrade?

  (My guess is: 
  1) shutdown server
  2) upgrade all clients
  3) start and upgrade server off-line
  4) go online with server
  but again - is the order important when upgrading?)
