Update: mintty 2.0.2


I uploaded a hotfix for the Alt-F2 issue. Hopefully it shall show up on the mirrors soon.

After closing half of the open issues, I thought itâs a good time to release mintty. Iâve bumped the major version number to 2 to reflect the change of repository and maintainer and somehow catch up with cygwin...

Major new features and fixes are listed below. See also the changelog in the Wiki
https://github.com/mintty/mintty/wiki
For new options, there is no GUI configuration facility yet ("Hidden settings"). Please ask for them if desired.

The homepage is at http://mintty.github.io/
It also links to the issue tracker.
