Hi Git Community, Christian and Johannes, My initial Outreachy got accepted. My name is Ananya Krishna(her), I am from south India. I completed my under-graduation. Due to some problems, I decided to stay back at home. And currently I would like to dedicate myself to learn from open communities. During the school, I showed keen interest in operating systems and implemented most of the scheduling, synchronization and some sample examples in memory management. I also did a lot of assignments in bash scripting. In my 3rd year of Btech, I was introduced to this magical tool `git` and got flattened by how it made me to keep track of versions of my assignments. Having done a lot of assignment in C and bash scripting and keen interest to learn about working of git internals, I choose to contribute to this project. So I started observing the patches sent to git mailing list. I am currently looking for first patch opportunities to git. I came across[1] and I will try to put maximum effort towards my goal and if I need some clarification of the problem statement I guess you guys or Outreachy mentors will be here to help me. Thanks, Ananya. [1](https://git.github.io/SoC-2018-Microprojects/)
