Hi Git Community,

The link to the release notes for v2.48.1 on the git-scm downloads page doesn't seem to be working.

It links to: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/git/git/master/Documentation/RelNotes/2.48.1.txt

It looks like the master branch now uses '.adoc' extension since this commit: https://github.com/git/git/commit/1f010d6bdf756129db13d1367c888aa4153f6d87

Using either of these URLs loads the release notes correctly:
- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/git/git/v2.48.1/Documentation/RelNotes/2.48.1.txt
- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/git/git/master/Documentation/RelNotes/2.48.1.adoc
Ngā mihi
