What's done:
1. Get familiar with Git code base and have read the code of 'git
blame', revision walk, 'git log'.
2. Try to make some patches for git:
    1. * by/blame-doc-m-c (2010-05-06) 1 commit, in 'next'
    2. * by/log-follow (2010-05-10) 4 commits, in 'next'
    3. the '--graph improvement', in discuss and I think ready for inclusion.
3. Start to write some code for the line level browser feature. And it
is in the 'playaround' branch in http://repo.or.cz/w/line.git . Now,
the code can parse multiple line ranges for multiple files in only one
revision.

You didn't mention

 4. Contributing to other discussion of --follow on the list.

It is a small thing, perhaps, but I am very happy to see a GSoC student
actively participating in the community.

Thanks! :)

Speaking of which, I haven't finished polishing the --follow patches
from our earlier thread. I was taking a look at making history
simplification (including --parents) work. Are you going to be doing any
work on that this summer? If so, I will probably just drop it for now
and let you deal with it. :)

Yeah, the line level browser will touch the parents rewriting things
and I think the feature of line level history is a super-set of the
'--follow' things, so you can leave it with me. And in my plan, I will
complete this in next month. :)

Regards!
