I think the best examples we have to show are - Sverre (even if his work is not in git.git; Junio thought that the project could gain more visibility outside of Git, but that had rather the opposite effect), who interacted with the Git community and with his mentor rather well, - Marek, who did a good job with the push support in JGit/EGit (even if he did not communicate with the community frequently, he did often enough, and listened to advice), and of course - Miklos, who was already known on the Git mailing list before getting really involved through the Summer of Code.
