Hi everyone.

My name is Soutrik Das. I am doing Mtech in AI from IIT Bhubaneswar , India. I want to try and submit a microproject and see if I can even contribute to git. The last few days I have been reading the pages in https://git.github.io/GSoC-Participants/ . And I understood the general flow that I have to Introduce myself -> Make git from scratch -> Understand and then try to do a small patch which would be a hello world for me. -> Then I would send my application and the community would help me refine it.

But I am a bit lost on the First Patch / microproject thing. I am reading the HackingGit page for now.

Nice to Meet you, Soutrik
