[Outreachy] Internship Applicant (Contribution Phase)

[Outreachy] Internship Applicant (Contribution Phase)

[Seyi Chamber]

Hello everyone,

My name is Seyi Kuforiji, and I am an Outreachy applicant. I have read
the following documents;
 - https://git.github.io/General-Microproject-Information/,
  - https://git.github.io/General-Application-Information/
  - https://git.github.io/SoC-2024-Microprojects/

I want to get started on modernizing the test script:
t/t7011-skip-worktree-reading.sh using the specifications discussed on
this thread: https://lore.kernel.org/git/CAPig+cQpUu2UO-+jWn1nTaDykWnxwuEitzVB7PnW2SS_b7V8Hg@mail.gmail.com/.

Before I proceed, is anyone currently working on this test script? Is
this a good first start, @Patrick Steinhardt and
@phillip.wood@dunelm.org.uk?

I'm not aware of anybody that'd currently be working on t7011, and
searching our mailing list archive [1] didn't surface any recent mails
that indicate that this is the case. So please, feel free to pick it up
:)
