I just noticed that this one got dropped by the mailing list. I'll respond to existing replies in that thread) Hi Patrick, Christian, Karthik and Jialuo, Thank you very much for your interest in volunteering as a mentor!

I've incorporated them into a draft ideas page for now. You can see them here: https://git.github.io/SoC-2025-Ideas/ Kindly suggest any corrections to the description, project size / difficulty as necessary. I've mentioned potential mentors based on what I'm aware of so far. Patrick, Christian and Karthik, kindly mention the ideas that you're interested to mentor. While I have not included them as of yet, I wonder if the following ideas which we had last year[1] could still be retained this year: - Implement consistency checks for refs. The idea could be about implementing further ref checks which Jialuo appears to be helping out with. We could leave it if Jialuo prefers to continue working on the same in a flow. - Refactor git-bisect(1) to make its state self-contained - Implement support for reftables in "dumb" HTTP transport Would these be interesting ones to consider? Is anyone willing to mentor these this time around? > I'll keep on thinking about potential topics. Sure. That would be great! Others could also chime in with your potential ideas. Also, do not hesitate to let us know if you're interested in mentoring. -- Sivaraam
