+Git v2.17.2 Release Notes
+=========================
+
+This release merges up the fixes that appear in v2.14.5 to address
+the recently reported CVE-2018-17456; see the release notes for that
+version for details.
+
+In addition, this release also teaches "fsck" and the server side
+logic to reject pushes to repositories that attempt to create such a
+problematic ".gitmodules" file as tracked contents, to help hosting
+sites protect their customers by preventing malicious contents from
+spreading.
