upgrade to 3.7.1
This release introduces security fixes for Linux, macOS, and Windows
systems, which have been collectively assigned CVE-2025-26625.
When populating a Git repository's working tree with the contents of
Git LFS objects, certain Git LFS commands may write to files visible
outside the current Git working tree if symbolic or hard links exist
which collide with the paths of files tracked by Git LFS.
Git LFS has resolved this problem by revising the git lfs checkout and
git lfs pull commands so that they check for symbolic links in the same
manner as performed by Git before writing to files in the working tree.
These commands now also remove existing files in the working tree before
writing new files in their place.
As well, Git LFS has resolved a problem whereby the git lfs checkout and
git lfs pull commands, when run in a bare repository, could write to
files visible outside the repository. While a specific and relatively
unlikely set of conditions were required for this to occur, it is no
longer possible under any circumstances.
We would like to extend a special thanks to the following open-source
