PATCH 1/1 git manpage: note [email protected]
Add a mention of the security mailing list to the "Reporting Bugs" section. There's a mention of this list at
https://git-scm.com/community but none in git.git itself.
The copy is pasted from the git-scm.com website. Let's use the same wording in both places.

Someone at Git Merge mentioned that our own docs have no mention of how to report security issues. Perhaps this should be in SubmittingPatches too, but I couldn't figure out how that magical footnote format works.

This is quite a sensible thing to do.

The "Notes from the maintainer" posted periodically here for developers does mention it, and I do agree with you that SubmittingPatches is a good place to add it, as it is a document that is targetted more towards developers. But this is a good first step.
Will queue.
