Git Merge 2022 is happening on September 14th and 15th in Chicago, IL.
The Contributor's Summit will be on the 14th. Here are the details for
the main conference:

Where: Morgan Manufacturing (401 N Morgan), Chicago, Illinois, USA
What: Workshops on the 14th, main conference on the 15th
In addition to the workshop day on the 14th, GitHub will also be

that are:
When: September 14th
Where: Convene (131 S Dearborn) Chicago, Illinois, USA
What: Contributor's Summit
Who: All contributors to Git or related projects in the Git ecosystem
are invited; if you're not sure if you qualify, please ask!
This email is just to announce the date so people can start planning for
the main conference and Contributor's Summit. The main webpage is below,
and has all of the details:

Registration for the event is still being set up, but I'm told that it
should be live in the next couple of days. I'll reply to this email when
I have some more details.
In the meantime, the CFP site is up and running. If you have any
interest in giving a talk, please consider submitting a proposal here:

Note that this year we're going back to having the Contributor's Summit
take place the day before the conference. For the Contributor's Summit,
the plan is to have an A/V setup for folks to join remotely where travel
isn't possible. I'll provide details on that as we get closer to the
actual event.
If you'd like to come but need financial assistance with travel costs,
please reach out to the Git PLC at <git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>. We'll
collect requests and try to make decisions and notify people by
mid-July, which would hopefully still leave time for making travel
arrangements.
Other than that, please be thinking about (and feel free to discuss in
this thread) topics you'd like to discuss, or any general thoughts on
the format, venue setup, etc.
Thanks,
Taylor
