Re: hacktoberfest

seems my last answer was blocked due to HTML :(

here's the answer: Seems a nice start yes. I've been on vacations, but
next week I will go trough the current issues and add the
hacktoberfest label to some issues if you agree.

I went through the open issues a few moments ago. Some were closed
(solved or not applicable anymore), and some got an hacktoberfest
label, hoping new contributors pop up. Feel free to have a look and
add new issues to the label, as well as remove some of those I thought
it could be a good fit. There are easy issue, and some not so easy
(not very hard, but a bit more work) probably.

Issues labeled:
https://github.com/git/git-scm.com/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3Ahacktoberfest

Thanks,
Pedro

While the git repository itself is not hosted under GitHub, the Pro
Git book, git for Windows, and git-scm website (at least) projects
are, and could use this movement to get some more contributions, and
eventually more maintainers (at least git-scm website had some
maintainers problem some time ago).

I've been helping on the git-scm repository (mostly filtering issues
and PRs), and I know there are still some issues which need to be
addressed. If the remaining maintainers agree, we could filter and
provide more instructions to some easy (or not so easy) issues, adding
the 'hacktoberfest' label and try to use this movement to solve some
problems

I'd love it if more people wanted to contribute to the git-scm
repository. I think one can probably find some low-hanging fruit by
looking at the open issues list (though I'd be happy, too, if people
with bug or feature suggestions opened new issues).

Here are a couple small-to-moderate bugs that have been languishing:

  https://github.com/git/git-scm.com/issues/701

  https://github.com/git/git-scm.com/issues/987

  https://github.com/git/git-scm.com/issues/994
