I have read the following documents; - https://git.github.io/General-Microproject-Information/, - https://git.github.io/General-Application-Information/ - https://git.github.io/SoC-2024-Microprojects/ I want to get started on modernizing the test script: t/t7011-skip-worktree-reading.sh using the specifications discussed on this thread: https://lore.kernel.org/git/CAPig+cQpUu2UO-+jWn1nTaDykWnxwuEitzVB7PnW2SS_b7V8Hg@mail.gmail.com/. Before I proceed, is anyone currently working on this test script? Is this a good first start, @Patrick Steinhardt and @phillip.wood@dunelm.org.uk?

I'm not aware of anybody that'd currently be working on t7011, and searching our mailing list archive [1] didn't surface any recent mails that indicate that this is the case.
