- Statement
- Git Security Policy: there are no official Long Term Support versions. Fixes go to the maintenance track of the most recent feature release; older maintenance tracks have no formal guarantee of updates, although critical vulnerability fixes are in practice applied to several older tracks. Feature releases are numbered vX.Y.0 and maintenance releases vX.Y.Z, with a feature release cycle of eight to ten weeks. (as published on 2026-09-27)
