+Subject: [PATCH 18/38] fix: prevent environment expansion in remote URLs
+
+Remote and submodule creation expanded environment-variable references in
+caller-supplied URLs before storing them in Git configuration. This could
+expose process environment values through a later network request or a tracked
+.gitmodules file.
+
+Preserve variables literally in the remaining untrusted URL callers while
+retaining Git.polish_url() expansion for intentional local-path normalization.
+Add regression tests covering remote configuration and submodule configuration.
+
+Git baseline: git remote add and git submodule add accept URL arguments
+literally; Git does not perform shell-style environment expansion on those
+arguments.
+
+CVE: CVE-2026-73622
+Upstream-Status: Backport [https://github.com/gitpython-developers/GitPython/commit/863417457a0633db7ea5aed4fd01e0b291a41162]
+
+Backport Changes:
+- Omit upstream regression test changes because the current PyPI
+ source archive does not include its test suite.
