The Git project doesn't distribute any binaries at all, and it doesn't
distribute OpenSSH.   It distributes source code for Git, and that's
all.

It sounds like you're using Git for Windows, which does distribute
binaries, both of Git and OpenSSH.  If you have feedback for them,
you'll probably want to use their issue tracker
(https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues) and, if it hasn't
already been reported, you can request a change there.
