Hello all,

As you may be aware, the results for GSoC 2024 have been officially 
announced[1]. We have 3 contributors contributing to Git this year[2]. 
They are as follows:


   - Chandra Pratap

     Project: Move and improve reftable tests in the unit
              testing framework
     Mentors: Christian Couder and Patrick Steinhardt


   - Ghanshyam Thakkar

     Project: Move existing tests to a unit testing framework
     Mentors: Christian Couder and Kaartic Sivaraam


   - Jialuo She

     Project: Implement consistency check for refs
     Mentors: Patrick Steinhardt and Karthik Nayak


Let us welcome them and wish them a good summer of contributing to Git 
via GSoC!

Thank you to all the contibutors who applied to Git this year! It was 
tough to choose from multiple potential contributors who all were good 
in their own respect. Hoping to see you around continuing your 
contributions to the Git community in some way :-)

Thanks, I have already created the blog post which would record the
journey of the project. For everyone who is interested, you can follow
the blogpost for updates about "Implement consistency check for refs"

  https://luolibrary.com/categories/GSoC-2024/

Thanks for my mentors and community for choosing me. I will try my best
to finish the project.

Thank you for this opportunity! Congratulations to Chandra and Jialuo,

post:

Hi Chandra, Ghanshyam and Jialuo,

Please let us know if you would like a call or some other kind of
meeting with only your mentors or with the wider Git community. It
could be on a regular schedule (like every few weeks) or not. It could
be a special Slack channel with us and perhaps others who would ask us
to be invited in it. We could also use this thread or other emails
threads either with or without the mailing list in Cc to discuss
things if you prefer.

We are suggesting this because the GSoC docs
(https://developers.google.com/open-source/gsoc/help/oa-tips) have the
following:

"Have a virtual introductory meeting with all of the accepted GSoC
contributors and mentors in May to help welcome everyone and help them
feel more like part of the community. This is something GSoC
contributors appreciate and ask for every year in their feedback, more
orgs should try this."

and in an email to mentors and org admins we were also told to "Set up
an introduction/welcome meeting with all of your GSoC contributors and
mentors (and other community members when possible)".

Also please be aware that if we setup something, you might help each
other on that channel, but you should not really work together on the
same things as https://google.github.io/gsocguides/mentor/selecting-a-student
for example says:

"Don’t select multiple people for the same project idea: If two GSoC
contributors are working on the exact same project then they are
competing with each other. Likewise, don’t make one person’s project
dependent on another person’s project, that essentially makes it a
team project which is not allowed or in the best interest of the GSoC
contributors."

Also feel free to reply to this privately to your mentors if you prefer.

Best!

I've had meetings with my mentors Patrick and Karthik this week. We've
set up bi-weekly video meetings for syncing. I think it's good to create
a Slack channel where we could help each other for some general problems
thus improving the productivity and also establishing a good
relationship.

I think it's nice to have a virtual introductory meeting with all of the
accepted GSoC contributors and mentors thus we could know each other
more.

Thanks for your reply.

Chandra, Ghanshyam also agreed privately to have such a Slack channel
with all the mentors, contributors and everyone else who would be
interested in discussing or just watching what happens. So we will
create the channel and, please everyone, let us (Karthik, Patrick,
Kaartic and me) know if you want to be part of it.

We are also going to have such a call on Friday June 7th at 12:00 UTC
(2 PM CEST, 5:30 PM IST, 8 AM EDT). Everyone else is also welcome,
please just let us know and we will invite you.

Thanks!
