[Newcomer] Introducing myself and expressing interest in `Implement support for reftables in “dumb” HTTP transport` project

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

My name is AbdAlRahman, I'm a senior computer science student.
I'm interested in working on the `Implement support for reftables in “dumb” HTTP transport` project with the help of a mentor, I'm aware that the project is not being worked on in GSOC but I was wondering if the project is still not taken in general, and whether I can work on it outside of GSOC?

If the project is not taken, what should I do next?

I'm also aware that the mentors are busy with GSOC and might not have time now. I'm OK with starting whenever mentors are available, but hopefully, guide me on what to do until then.

Steps I've taken so far:

For git:

I worked on one of the micro-projects, modernizing a test script, The patch series is now merged in the `next` branch, there are still a few modernizations left in the file which I will work on after the first series is merged.

This taught me git contribution workflow and to expect to do multiple iterations of the patch.

For the project:

I've read the resources provided in the project description for GSOC [1] in addition to a video [2] and an article [3] by one of the possible mentors.

This gave me a high-level overview of the ref-table backend.

Thanks.
