The msys shell used to be able to display the window title as "MINGW32:", which was very useful when multiple shells were open. This behaviour was lost due a series of commits, namely

This pull request/branch was constructed by first basing on 4e4e3f3 and fixing the annotations. 759a59f and 0433db0 were then reverted via merges. Merges were used to ensure this information was captured in the git history, as well as ensure conflict-free merging into upstream.

In 4e4e3f3, the 0; and bell etc. were incorrectly interpreted as having
to do with colors. In fact, it is responsible for setting the window
title. [1]

In effect, this reverts the change of the escape sequence from

  \033]0;

to

  \033[0m

due to an incorrect understanding of their purposes in 4e4e3f3.

In effect, this reverts 0433db0, since
its motivation (beep, double-display of pwd) is no longer present.

Merge Gabriel's pull request which among other things un-pins the
msysGit version [1].  We've had some problems with previous versions:

* Something about email prompting with 1.8.4 [2].
* "fatal: could not read..." errors on https:// clones with
  1.8.5.2-preview20131230 [3,4].

but Gabriel tested v1.9.0 and didn't see an email prompt [5] and Git
v1.9.0 fixed the HTTPS issue [6]:

> Fixed regression with interactive password prompt for remotes using
> the HTTPS protocol (issue msysgit/msysgit#111).

So until we find more problems, we're back to floating msysGit :).
