The latest maintenance release Git v2.36.1 is now available at
the usual places.
This is to fix many of the regressions shipped with v2.36.0;
unfortunately, there still are a few known regressions that are not
yet fixed, which have to wait for future maintenance releases.
The tarballs are found at:

The following public repositories all have a copy of the 'v2.36.1'
tag and the 'maint' branch that the tag points at:

Git v2.36.1 Release Notes
=========================
Fixes since v2.36
-----------------
* "git submodule update" without pathspec should silently skip an
uninitialized submodule, but it started to become noisy by mistake.
* "diff-tree --stdin" has been broken for about a year, but 2.36
release broke it even worse by breaking running the command with
<pathspec>, which in turn broke "gitk" and got noticed. This has
been corrected by aligning its behaviour to that of "log".
* Regression fix for 2.36 where "git name-rev" started to sometimes
reference strings after they are freed.
* "git show <commit1> <commit2>... -- <pathspec>" lost the pathspec
when showing the second and subsequent commits, which has been
corrected.
* "git fast-export -- <pathspec>" lost the pathspec when showing the
second and subsequent commits, which has been corrected.
* "git format-patch <args> -- <pathspec>" lost the pathspec when
showing the second and subsequent commits, which has been
corrected.
* Get rid of a bogus and over-eager coccinelle rule.
* Correct choices of C compilers used in various CI jobs.
Also contains minor documentation updates and code clean-ups.
