Hello all, I am a Git user since last 2 years and now I want to contribute towards its development. Yesterday, I had a discussion with Kevin on the IRC channel #git-devel, where I got this link:- https://git.github.io/SoC-2018-Microprojects/. Out of the tasks listed down in above URL, I found this one interesting:- "Use dir-iterator to avoid explicit recursive directory traversal" ==> Some places in git use raw API opendir/readdir/closedir to traverse a directory recursively, which usually involves function recursion. Now that we have struct dir_iterator (see dir-iterator.h), convert these to use the dir-iterator to simplify the code. Do only one conversion per microproject. I cloned the git repo and browsed through it. I found that in git clone (buildtin/clone.c), raw directory API readdir() is used recursively. So there is a place to change it to use the already available "dir_iterator" structure. I just want to know, if anybody is working on this task already. If not, then I can proceed to work. Thank you and Regards, Vaibhav
