Great! Just one optional suggestion of adding a link to MSYS2's 32-bit announcement/drop, if you think people would like it.

| While Git for Windows v1.x was only ever offered as 32-bit installer (i.e. targeting the i686 CPU architecture), as of Git for Windows v2.x (which happened mid-2015), there have been two variants: the 32-bit and the 64-bit (x86\_64) one. | ||

| However, due to Git for Windows' reliance on the MSYS2 runtime, which dropped 32-bit support as of version 3.4.x, Git for Windows will start to phase out 32-bit support after Git for Windows v2.40.x. |

Maybe a link to the MSYS runtime 3.4.x release notes/docs about dropping 32-bit support? For those that care to dive deeper?

Done! I also reworded the introduction in places where I found it klunky.
