Git is a member project of the Software Freedom Conservancy, a public charity that provides financial and administrative support to open source projects. You can donate at https://git-scm.com/sfc.

That said, the project would not provide any quid pro quo in return. In particular, it wouldn't provide a backlink.

Please refrain from this kind of mass emailing in the future.

Sincerely, Jonathan
