Update your Git!

I saw a toot from Michael Kennedy, host of @talkpython sharing a post from the github.blog announcing a Git security vulnerability.

Here’s how to update Git on Windows 10 and Ubuntu ►

• Windows 10
  command: git update-git-for-windows
  source: How to Upgrade git to the Latest Version on Windows
  The article also explains how to update an older version of git on your Windows 10 machine or — if you don’t already have Git for Windows — how to install it 👍
• Ubuntu
  A freshly installed Ubuntu will have Git but not the latest Git. To get the latest Git you need to add the Personal Package Archive (PPA) for it ►
  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:git-core/ppa
  and then update & install ►
  sudo apt update
sudo apt install git
  If you already have the PPA added and you just need to get the latest version then ►
  sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
