[GSoC] Introduction

Andrew Chitester· Dec 24, 2025, 02:14 UTC · lore

Hello Everyone,

My name is Andrew Chitester, and I'm a student at Cape Cod Community College working towards a bachelors in Computer Science.

My interest in Git flourished after discovering Magit in Emacs. I've kept some notes on my progress towards contributing to Git on a github page[1] and my overall goal is to improve my ability to communicate and contribute.

With that said, I think it is in our best interest to learn from each other and collaborate. I am determined to learn about Git and am looking forward to becoming part of this community.
