Thanks for the feedback in this thread (I'm the author). The main goal _is_ to let people know about the new version, and about new features they can use (there are a ton of other new features and a lot of backend speedups and cleanups that I don't bother to highlight, because they're not really actionable by normal users).

I've tried to make the Git vs GitHub distinction clear in the first paragraph without belaboring it, but I agree with the sentiment here that the title muddies things. For future iterations I'll look into something more like "A look at the new features in v2.17".

I think the title you used is a lot less confusing than "A look at the new features in v2.17". A title like that doesn't mention Git would make me think that GitHub is releasing v2.17 if its own product. I don't think there's a way you can clear this up within the title.

Er, sorry, I meant to say "...the new features in Git v2.17".

I think that keeps it clear but without making it overtly look like a release announcement.

Ok, I think that does actually make things a bit more clear. Thanks for writing these up, by the way!
