Hello Git community,

My name is Rosemary Ajayi, and I’m an Outreachy applicant for the December 2025 internship round. I’m interested in the project “Refactor in order to reduce Git’s global state,” mentored by Christian Couder and Usman Akinyemi.

I have experience with JavaScript and I’m currently learning C and exploring Git internals. I’m looking forward to contributing to a microproject and learning more about the Git codebase.

Thank you for maintaining such an important project, and I’m excited to join this community.

Best regards, Rosemary Ajayi

I would strongly recommend reading through [1],[2] and [3]. They should give you some ideas for how the Outreachy application process is designed to work in the Git project and lays out the expectation of us mentors.

You can check [4] for more information.
Let me know in case you have any additional questions!

One very important thing at Git when replying to email is that we do not do top-posting to email, we only do inline replies. It is very important to keep in mind.
