Many of the regulars on #git-devel are now on Libera Chat, to the extent that the community page now lists it as the IRC Channel[1]. This will help new contributors find the right place, if they choose to ask questions on `#git-devel`.

Relevant discussion on the IRC transition: https://lore.kernel.org/git/CAJoAoZ=e62sceNpcR5L5zjsj177uczTnXjcAg+BbOoOkeH8vXQ@mail.gmail.com/
