I suggest you go through the Documentation, especially "Documentation/CodingGuidelines" and "Documentation/SubmittingPatches" to get an idea of the workflow and guidelines for contributing to Git.

All issues and bugs are discussed on the mailing list, so keep going through the list for potential problems.

There is also Junio's Blog where he keeps a list of things to be done

You could pick something from there and work on that.
Have Fun.
