Git 2.37.1 Release Notes
========================
This release merges up the fixes that appear in v2.30.5, v2.31.4,
v2.32.3, v2.33.4, v2.34.4, v2.35.4, and v2.36.2 to address the
security issue CVE-2022-29187; see the release notes for these
versions for details.
Fixes since Git 2.37
--------------------
* Rewrite of "git add -i" in C that appeared in Git 2.25 didn't
correctly record a removed file to the index, which is an old
regression but has become widely known because the C version has
become the default in the latest release.
* Fix for CVE-2022-29187.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Git v2.30.5 Release Notes
=========================
This release contains minor fix-ups for the changes that went into
Git 2.30.3 and 2.30.4, addressing CVE-2022-29187.
* The safety check that verifies a safe ownership of the Git
worktree is now extended to also cover the ownership of the Git
directory (and the `.git` file, if there is any).
