Hello, everyone. I was peering over the previous years' GSoC ideas for Git, and I wish to apply to work with Git in the upcoming GSoC '11. I found the Restartable Clone idea from the GSoC 2008 ideas page interesting, and am keen on working on it. I'm a basic C/C++/Python programmer, and my previous programming experience has mainly been related to maths, algorithms and logic, pretty much formal-education stuff. I was taught basic C in high school and I spent time in expanding to C++ and Python. I have coded a few applications in these languages out of my own whim, and have been dabbling in shell-scripting for a while. I have no Open Source development experience, but I've brought myself upto speed with how open source communities work, and the mandatory tools like vcs, bugtrackers, patches, compiling from source, etc. That said, I'd like to know if my programming knowledge will suffice to apply as a student for Git in GSoC. If so, I'd like to get started on the Restartable Clone idea and start learning the necessary stuff and work on it :) Thanks, Pranav. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
