Thanks for the info Cheryl.

For those on Mac OS, you can update your local git using homebrew as
follows:

If you have installed git on MacOS using homebrew before:
$ brew upgrade git


If you did not install git using Homebrew, (for example if you've been
using the built-in git)
$ brew install git

`git --version` tells you what version you have. It should be 2.14.1 now.

On Windows, perhaps see
