Summary
This post introduces significant performance improvements to the `git rebase -i` command by re-implementing core logic in C, resulting in up to 5x speedup on Windows. It also announces MinGit, a stripped-down Git for Windows distribution suitable for embedding in applications, and highlights other improvements in Git for Windows v2.10.0, including faster `git rebase` onto fast-moving branches, configurable help browser, executable file marking on Windows, faster initial `git fetch`, and improved `git grep` and merge handling.
