Hi @Byron ,
\n
I am working on fixing the CVE-2022-24439 on our source code. Our product is currently having python3-git with 3.1.27 version. As I got to know that #1521 PR is fixing the CVE-2022-24439 so, started backporting the patches. But, after applying patches observed that in our python3-git source code there is no \"test/\" directory available and due to which patches are failing to apply.
\n
Later on found that there no test/ directory in original tarball downloaded from this https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/source/G/GitPython/GitPython-3.1.27.tar.gz
\n
Could you please tell me if I can ignore the changes in test/ directory & apply the patches then, will it fix the CVE-2022-24439 issue ? If not then how to fix this CVE-2022-24439 in this source code where test/ directory is not at available ?
\n
Thanks.

You should be good ignoring the changes to tests, make also sure to apply the changes from #1518.
