So Git just got accepted into GSoC 2020, and is listed there:

Emily and Jonathan, If we participate in both GSoC and Outreachy this summer, I think it's better if we share as much as possible, so I would suggest we just create a "Summer-2020-Microprojects.md" and a "Summer-2020-Ideas.md" that are common to both GSoC and Outreachy.

So I am planning to rename "SoC-2020-Ideas.md" into "Summer-2020-Ideas.md". I will also create a mostly dummy "Summer-2020-Microprojects.md" that we can fill up with micro project ideas.

In the future we can perhaps continue this way by creating "Winter-2021-Microprojects.md" and a "Winter-2021-Ideas.md" for the next Winter Outreachy round if we participate?
