Thank you for your introduction email and for your interest in Git!

Emily posted some interesting information on the Git mailing list that you can see in the archives there:

https://public-inbox.org/git/20191007203654.GA20450@google.com/

We require Outreachy (and GSoC) applicants to work on a microproject before they can be selected. There are microproject suggestions in Emily's email and the following discussions.

Unfortunately we only have a web page that we prepared for the last Google Summer of Code:

https://git.github.io/SoC-2019-Microprojects/

So it might not be up to date but you can still find interesting information on top of what Emily posted.

Don't hesitate to ask if you have any further questions.

Best, Christian.
