Hello everyone. Sorry I am late for GSoC application... But I am ready to start contribute to git. I am a freshman in Computer Science and this is my first time contributing to git project. I have already had some experience working with C, shell and Perl. I found that there are several lines of code in shell scripts using 'type' instead of "command -V", which is not currently in POSIX standard but in XSI... See: https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/ I thought that it would be better to use POSIX standard although many common shell including 'type' as its built-in. I would like to go through all the code and replace type with "command -V" properly. Is this worth doing so? Thanks, Angel
