Cool, Pablo. I've approved your application and also Usman's. Right now 
we appear to have 2 mentors per project:

   - Reduce Git’s global state to enable Git's libification

     - Usman Akinyemi
     - Pablo Sabater

   - Improve how command arguments and options are scanned and parsed

     - Christian Couder
     - Siddarth Asthana

Given that we already have enough mentors for both the projects and I 
have some bandwidth, I wonder if it would make sense to also propose the 
projects that we proposed for GSoC but were not actually taken up by 
anyone. The following are the projects:

   - Implement promisor remote fetch ordering

   - Enhance promisor-remote protocol for better-connected remotes

More details regarding the project can be found here:

Thoughts?
