While I am using this locally already, I'll wait for @mjcheetham to give the word when GCM v3 should be used in Git for Windows instead of v2.

@dscho I think we're good to go with the move to GCM 3.x for
x86_64andARM64(we have stopped publishing x86 binaries with 3.x, so the MinGit x86 will need to stay on the 2.x train - security only fixes).We may want to update the Git for Windows installer page about Git Credential Manager, possibly to mention there's some breaking changes? (or a link to a breaking changes doc - I can write this).
