Ever since the switch from MSys/MinGW to MSYS2/MINGW in 2015, i.e. almost 10 years ago, Git for Windows hasn't bundled the certificates that were specifically mentioned in the release notes.

They were introduced via msysgit/msysgit#37, which is such a blast from a more pleasant past. But since the certificates aren't included any more, we should not claim that we do in the release notes, either.

It's somewhat funny that nobody realized this in almost a decade.
