seems my last answer was blocked due to HTML :(

here's the answer: Seems a nice start yes. I've been on vacations, but next week I will go trough the current issues and add the hacktoberfest label to some issues if you agree.

I went through the open issues a few moments ago. Some were closed (solved or not applicable anymore), and some got an hacktoberfest label, hoping new contributors pop up. Feel free to have a look and add new issues to the label, as well as remove some of those I thought it could be a good fit. There are easy issue, and some not so easy (not very hard, but a bit more work) probably.

Issues labeled: https://github.com/git/git-scm.com/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3Ahacktoberfest

Thanks, Pedro
