Certainly not.

The reason that this was merged quickly is because both of the first two
reviewers had already seen the patch and reviewed it earlier on the
git-security list. The patch that Stolee sent was urgent enough to merit
a quick merge. But it was not so urgent as to do an embargoed release
since the client-side attack isn't interesting, rather it was important
for forges which may use merge-tree directly to perform merges.
