[Outreachy] Indication Of Interest To Intern At Git

[Outreachy] Indication Of Interest To Intern At Git

[Naomi Ibe]

Hi, my name is Naomi, and I would love to intern at Git under the
Outreachy remote internship scheme, and work on project #2: Finish
adding an os-version capability to Git protocol v2.
I applied to intern here last year but I did not get in, but I will
put in extra effort this year and I really hope I get in. I will get
started on the micro project task today, and I am glad I got the
opportunity to apply to Git again.

I have trouble finding a microproject task, I know mentors are not
going to assign us tasks but I can not seem to find a microproject. If
there is a link to available microprojects, could someone please point
me to it? And yes, I have read:

Hum, true. I expected that [2] would contain a list of microproject
ideas, but in fact it does not. You can find that list at [3].

Thank you very much. I have decided to work on "Modernize a test
script" and I would like to work on modernizing some section of any of
the 3 files below if this is accepted as a valid microproject.
1) https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/t/lib-read-tree.sh
2) https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/t/t9112-git-svn-md5less-file.sh
3) https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/t/t9113-git-svn-dcommit-new-file.sh

One note up front: we do not top-post on this mailing list. Replies to
emails are supposed to go below the quoted text, or should be mixed
below specific quotes you want to reply to.

Also, you don't need approval to pick on a microproject. It is totally
fine to just pick something you think can be converted, double check
whether some other applicant is working on it already by searching
through recent mails on the mailing list, and then start working on it.

I couldn't really see anything that would need to be done for (1) and
(3), both of them look mostly fine to me. But (2) certainly looks like a
good candidate to me for modernization.

Thanks!
