Thank you for your reply, Eliot. I show very different git executables:

$ ls -li /usr/local/bin/git /usr/bin/git
 3659174698190617 -rwxr-xr-x 142 somia Administrators 3.6M May 25  2024
/usr/bin/git*
19421773393853074 -rwxr-xr-x 142 somia somia           20M Sep  7 21:44
/usr/local/bin/git*

The differing file ownership shows me that I built git last September (and
that it's a humongous file ;-)
in /usr/bin:  version 2.45.1 and in /usr/local/bin: version 2.45.1. Same
version, showing that cygwin is keeping up with upstream, a good thing,
that. I would say "I cannot believe that I compiled git from source and
then forgot that I did so", but at my age (64) it's all too common a
phenomenon.

He's earthy, he's pithy, he's ...a bit astringent.
Think of him more as a "topical antiseptic" than as a snack
.
