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.
Copy a command tailored to that specific architecture, type, and scope - useful when winget would otherwise pick a different default.
No known CVEs for MinGit.
Coverage is best-effort and depends on a winget package mapping to an NVD CPE entry. Absence here is not a guarantee of safety.
