MinGit for Windows v2.35.7

Changes since Git for Windows v2.35.6 (January 17 2023):

Bug Fixes

* CVE-2023-22490:

  Using a specially-crafted repository, Git can be tricked into using
  its local clone optimization even when using a non-local transport.
  Though Git will abort local clones whose source $GIT_DIR/objects
  directory contains symbolic links (c.f., CVE-2022-39253), the objects
  directory itself may still be a symbolic link.

  These two may be combined to include arbitrary files based on known
  paths on the victim's filesystem within the malicious repository's
  working copy, allowing for data exfiltration in a similar manner as
  CVE-2022-39253.

* CVE-2023-23946:

  By feeding a crafted input to "git apply", a path outside the
  working tree can be overwritten as the user who is running "git
  apply".

* A mismatched type in `attr.c::read_attr_from_index()` which could
  cause Git to errantly reject attributes on Windows and 32-bit Linux
  has been corrected.
