There seems to be a bit of confusion between what Outreachy wants to see and what we need to see before adopting somebody as an Outreachy intern. I doubt Outreachy considers a microproject contribution qualifies as the "required" contribution. Instead of being a theme for a full 3-months internship, a microproject is designed to be a bite-sized project, with which a potential participant can experience the end-to-end contribution process of proposing a change, polishing it while working with others, and seeing the evolution of the proposed change through to completion, without requiring technical skills or project specific knowledge. It is primarily a "dip your toes in the water, learn how things are done in the development community that may choose you as an intern" practice session. As Patrick said, it may still be a "contribution" from the Git project's point of view, but it is not designed to be something that qualifies as a "Contribution" they talk about when they say the "Applicants are required to make a contribution" section in their https://www.outreachy.org/docs/applicant/#make-contributions page.
