Subject: [RFC]: Continue contribution
Message-ID: <CAD=f0L_F-c-xACU8z+2GwgBwzVsZBLcMvtVbuB3phC73_xHBoA@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

I participated in the just concluded Outreachy contribution phase.
However I would like to contribute some more to Git and
I have been scanning the codebase for some #leftoverbits
I can tackle and an example is this
https://lore.kernel.org/git/20251010052256.GB1965904@coredump.intra.peff.net/
which proposes to pass `struct *object_database` instead of
`struct *repo` to `remove_redundant_pack()` and also modify
`clear_midx_file() to accept `struct *object_database` rather than
'struct *repo' in the bid to reduce dependence on the `the_repository`
global variable.

The Outreachy documentation permits continued contributions
after the close of the contribution phase but I would like to
know if the community is okay with it and I can proceed.

Thanks as I await your response.
Bello
