Completing my introduction. I'm interested in the "Complete and extend the remote-object-info command for git cat-file" project. My pronouns are he/him.

I've confirmed that I meet all GSoC eligibility requirements.
Steps I've taken so far:

I started reading the docs, followed the MyFirstContribution tutorial, I'm reading chapter 10 of the git pro book that talks about the git internals and I've already sent two patches:

[GSoC PATCH v2] test-lib: print escape sequence names https://lore.kernel.org/git/20260311031442.11942-1-pabloosabaterr@gmail.com/ [GSoC PATCH] t9200: use helpers to replace test -f and test -d https://lore.kernel.org/git/20260309230134.758107-1-pabloosabaterr@gmail.com/

The project seems very interesting and currently I've already read up to the v11 from Eric Ju's and the feedback he received and what's left to do for the proposal. I've taken notes to make a good proposal!

I'm now getting familiar with what's related with the proposal and writing a draft Once I get feedback from the test-lib patch, I'll seek free time to keep making patches.

Thanks for the opportunity, I'm very excited about it, Pablo.
