I don't feel comfortable programing in C and I prefer C++ only because I
have more experience using this one. May I contribute to this project in
that language?.
if you have UI/Win32 experience, a good friendly UI for newcomers to
GIT is something we are lacking. Johannes got started with git-cheetah
a while ago, and there is a similar project called TortoiseHg, either
might be a good starting point.

As Jakub noted, C++ is a reasonably good fit for UIs, and we are
lacking those. We have a fantastic team of people doing C work on the
core of git, and noone on GUIs. So I'd say yes, C++/UI help is
something we need 'round here :-)
