Hello everyone,

I just published a new blog post on unit test scripts I've selected
and prioritized for initial conversion to clar. I would love for you
to check it out and share your opinion!

Thanks for the blog post! The initial selection looks reasonable to me.
I was wondering whether it would make sense to evict "t-reftable-tree.c"
out of the first batch and then handle all reftable-related tests in a
single patch series. But we've got 9 of those, some of which are quite
complex, so that patch series would become quite large overall. So I
guess it's sensible to distribute the conversion of the reftable tests
across different patch series.

I suppose I could still make that work if that's your recommendation.
I could divide the reftable-related tests into two sets and then treat
them together. What do you think?

Thanks

I'll leave it up to you, as there is no "right" or "wrong" in this
context.

Re: [Outreachy] Blog: Completion of My Outreachy Internship

[Seyi Chamber]

Dear Git Community,

I am writing to notify the Git community that my Outreachy internship
ended on Friday, March 7, 2025. It has been an incredibly rewarding
experience, and I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to contribute
to the project while learning from such a talented and supportive
community.

I want to extend a special thank you to Patrick Steinhardt, Phillip
Wood, Junio Hamano, Christian Couder, Karthik Nayak, and everyone else
who has helped me grow during my internship. Your guidance, feedback,
and patience have been invaluable in shaping my understanding of Git
and software development overall.

Although my internship has ended, I fully intend to remain involved in
the Git project and continue contributing and maybe even become a
mentor in the future :). I look forward to what the future holds, and
to further collaborating with the Git community.

Additionally, as I transition from my internship, I am actively
seeking job opportunities in software engineering or DevOps;
internships, or full-time positions. If anyone has suggestions,
referrals, or advice on potential opportunities, I would greatly
appreciate it.

Thank you once again for all the support, mentorship, and
encouragement throughout my internship. I’m excited to continue being
part of the Git community!
