My name is Quint Guvernator, and I am participating in the Google Summer of Code program. I am in university at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, VA and plan to major in Computer Science and Linguistics. I have been working on a microproject [1][2] to get the hang of submitting patches and working with the mailing list. I have just submitted my proposal for git rebase --interactive through the google-melange website. In brief, I plan to refactor the shell script, cleaning up parts where the code is incohesive or difficult to decipher; add functionality to the script; and improve documentation by describing the script in comments and improving our user docs. I think it is important not to rush into new features, however, and detail in my proposal the extent to which I will stay in contact with the community through this list and on IRC. Should the work on rebase --interactive not take all summer, I would work to improve the quality of Git documentation. I am a native English speaker and copy-edit a local newspaper, so I feel I am qualified to edit and extend the Git documentation. I am happy to receive private mail, so please send any issues or questions you may have either to the list or directly to my inbox. Thanks for your consideration for GSoC. --Quint [1]: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/243940 [2]: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/244159 ```
