If you have used Git for more than a week, I am _certain_\nthat you found things you wish Git did better. That would be the kind of\nproject that I'd think would be ideal.\n\n> I have read the coding-style and contributing guidelines stuff from the\n> website and am eager to start writing code.

The official bug tracker is the Git mailing list (which\nlacks any tooling, of course, to find all reported and still unfixed\nbugs). The two aforementioned bug trackers can be found here:\n\n\thttps://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/issues\n\nand\n\n\thttps://crbug.com/git\n\nIf you want some easy project, I would suggest to look at the first bug\ntracker because some tickets in there are labeled with \"good first issue\",\ne.g. this one:\n\n\thttps://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/issues/636\n\nCiao,\nJohannes\n"},{"id":"446675","messageId":"a1546449-376a-cdd3-c8fa-52c504663577@gmail.com","threadId":"57259","inReplyTo":"nycvar.QRO.7.76.6.2201212330280.2121@tvgsbejvaqbjf.bet","subject":"Re: [Newcomer] Suggestions for microprojects","fromName":"","fromEmail":"jaydeepjd.8914@gmail.com","sentAt":"2022-01-22T05:01:01Z","receivedAt":"2022-01-22T05:01:10Z","isPatch":false,"sender":{"key":"jaydeepjd.8914@gmail.com","avatar":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/64089730?v=4"},"body":"Thanks Johannes and Christian.
