What probably matters to youSection of the release
What
The extra Windows and Git Bash pass over Bash permissions has been removed entirely, so redirecting commands and previously approved shell commands should stop producing unexplained approval prompts on Windows.
Details
Gone with it: the byte-exact allow plumbing it used, the redirection-target patterns, and the heuristics for working directories in compound cd commands.
The prompt it produced, including the Cygwin symlink message, was present in v2.1.232 and does not occur anywhere in this build.
Evidence
Path traverses a Cygwin-emulated symlink (Git Bash follows it, Node does not) — manual approval required
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
