With this amount of bug fixes, it is high time to release a new version so that Git users can benefit from them. The current plan is to release Git for Windows v2.51.0(2) on this coming Monday, September 29th, 2025.

With this amount of bug fixes, mostly from upstream Git, I would have
expected a `.1` release. But not even Git's `maint` branch has moved,
so... I'm left with the undesirable decision to "go it alone".

This bug was identified in Microsoft Git's test suite, but would affect
general Git usage (it's just not covered by Git's own test suite): Under
some circumstances, failures to connect would be reported as time-outs
(after waiting up to 20 minutes in total, trying to connect every five
minutes or so).
