+Git v2.39.3 Release Notes
+=========================
+
+This release merges up the fix that appears in v2.30.9, v2.31.8,
+v2.32.7, v2.33.8, v2.34.8, v2.35.8, v2.36.6, v2.37.7 and v2.38.5 to
+address the security issues CVE-2023-25652, CVE-2023-25815, and
+CVE-2023-29007; see the release notes for these versions for
+details.
+
+This release also merges fixes that have accumulated on the 'master'
+front to prepare for the 2.40 release that are still relevant to
+2.39.x maintenance track.
+
+Fixes since v2.39.2
+-------------------
+
+ * Stop running win+VS build by default.
+
+ * CI updates.  We probably want a clean-up to move the long shell
+   script embedded in yaml file into a separate file, but that can
+   come later.
+
+ * Avoid unnecessary builds in CI, with settings configured in
+   ci-config.
+
+ * Redefining system functions for a few functions did not follow our
+   usual "implement git_foo() and #define foo(args) git_foo(args)"
+   pattern, which has broken build for some folks.
+
+ * Deal with a few deprecation warning from cURL library.
+
+ * Newer regex library macOS stopped enabling GNU-like enhanced BRE,
+   where '\(A\|B\)' works as alternation, unless explicitly asked with
+   the REG_ENHANCED flag.  "git grep" now can be compiled to do so, to
+   retain the old behaviour.
+
+ * When given a pattern that matches an empty string at the end of a
+   line, the code to parse the "git diff" line-ranges fell into an
+   infinite loop, which has been corrected.
+
+ * Fix the sequence to fsync $GIT_DIR/packed-refs file that forgot to
+   flush its output to the disk..
+
+ * "git diff --relative" did not mix well with "git diff --ext-diff",
+   which has been corrected.
+
+ * The logic to see if we are using the "cone" mode by checking the
+   sparsity patterns has been tightened to avoid mistaking a pattern
+   that names a single file as specifying a cone.
+
+ * Doc update for environment variables set when hooks are invoked.
+
+ * Document ORIG_HEAD a bit more.
+
+ * "git ls-tree --format='%(path) %(path)' $tree $path" showed the
+   path three times, which has been corrected.
+
+ * Document that "branch -f <branch>" disables only the safety to
+   avoid recreating an existing branch.
+
+ * Clarify how "checkout -b/-B" and "git branch [-f]" are similar but
+   different in the documentation.
+
+Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups.
