Good news! About the proposal: The idea of this project is to dive into the Git source code and convert, say, git-add--interactive.perl and/or git stash into proper C code, making it a so-called "built-in". My advice would be to try converting several small scripts, and avoid targetting a big one. This way, you can have a first patch series reviewed on-list, and merged in pu rather soon. From my experience, an early review is very important to get the student on track, and splitting the GSoC into multiple related projects avoids the situation where you have the feature "95% completed" at the end of the GSoC, but nothing merged. add--interactive and stash are relatively complex beasts, perhaps git-pull.sh would be easier to start with. OTOH, you know which script would be most useful to be converted into a builtin much better than me! -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/ -- 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
