Thanks for replying! It does indeed look like the situation is intentional. I was actually looking for a microprojet for GSoC, and found this issue on GitGitGadget's git fork.

I think I might need more scrutiny of the source-code to find a microproject, as most of the open issues seem to be already associated with a PR.

P.S. If you have any suggestions, I would be very grateful!

Thanks a lot! Vinayak Dev
