Hello Git Community,

I write to you with great joy, humility and gratitude to have been selected
as an Outreachy intern for the December 2025 - March 2026 Internship program.
Working on this renowned project gives me the privilege of working with,
and being guided by, some of the best and most impactful engineers.

My appreciation goes to everyone who guided and assisted me during the
contribution phase. I have learnt a lot already, but I am eager and keen
to learn even more.

In the coming days, I will be working on the project
"Refactor in order to reduce Git's global state" and I hope to make
significant contributions both during and after the internship period.

Thank you all once again.

Olamide Bello.
