Coordinated Security Audit for git. Contacts needed

Hello git maintainers,

The Open Source Technology Improvement Fund, Inc (https://ostif.org)
has put together a coalition of 18 security professionals and
researchers to conduct a holistic security review of git. The
objective of this email is to inform you of the effort and seek
collaboration.  We feel that the more we can engage and collaborate
with git maintainers, the more effective and impactful our security
review can be. An overview of the teams and work packages is as
follows:

Git Security Audit Work Packages:

Git source code review and threat modeling: This will be done by the
team at x41 d-sec with support from Gitlab reps.

Supply chain security / CI infrastructure review with Chainguard and
support from Gitlab.

A new setup of CodeQL for git with Xavier, Turbo and their team from Github.


We would love to collaborate to establish communication channels with
key maintainers. Would it be possible for one of us to join one of
your community meetings for 5 minutes? Or is there a key person we
should be engaging?


We thank you for maintaining a key and critical piece of software for
the open source community and beyond.

Thanks again,
Amir
