title: How to update git version from GitHub Desktop on Windows
body: <p>I want to use the new <code>worktree</code> functionality introduced in <a href="https://git-scm.com/docs/git-worktree" rel="nofollow"><code>git 2.5</code></a>. However, I don't know how to update to the most recent version of GitHub Desktop (<em>not</em> git itself).</p>
  
  <p>I install <a href="https://desktop.github.com/" rel="nofollow">GitHub for desktop</a> and hoped it ships with the most recent version, however <code>git --version</code> returns <code>git version 1.9.5.github.0</code>. But if I understand correctly, we're already at version 2.6.x! So how can I update to this version on my Windows machine, where the only version of git I installed was with the GH Desktop?</p>
