$ cmd.exe /c ver

• What options did you set as part of the installation? Or did you choose the
  defaults?

# One of the following:
> type "C:\Program Files\Git\etc\install-options.txt"
> type "C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\etc\install-options.txt"
> type "%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Programs\Git\etc\install-options.txt"
> type "$env:USERPROFILE\AppData\Local\Programs\Git\etc\install-options.txt"
$ cat /etc/install-options.txt

defaults - Using PortableGit packaging

• Any other interesting things about your environment that might be related
  to the issue you're seeing?

I have a ~/.ssh/config to work with our setup with Okta Advanced Server Access.

It looks like this:

Match exec "C:\\Users\\ian\\AppData\\Local\\Apps\\ScaleFT\\bin\\sft.exe resolve -q  %h"
    ProxyCommand "C:\\Users\\ian\\AppData\\Local\\Apps\\ScaleFT\\bin\\sft.exe" proxycommand  %h
    UserKnownHostsFile C:\\Users\\ian\\AppData\\Local\\ScaleFT\\proxycommand_known_hosts

This config worked in version 2.46.1.windows.1. It broke in 2.46.2.windows.1. Flipping the \\ to / did work around the issue. Though being able to work with both is a windows viable config.

Details
