I haven't thought of any good projects for the time being,
Christian, any ideas?
I already suggested the following project upthread:

About project ideas, maybe continuing Hariom Verma's GSoC 2020 "Unify
ref-filter formats with other \-\-pretty formats" project could be and
idea, though maybe it could interact too much with ZheNing Hu
continuing his GSoC 2021 "Use ref-filter formats in `git cat-file`"
project.
and you replied:

If the project idea is related to Hariom or my GSoC project, I think I can
provide a lot of help. :)  I can help them as a mentor.
so I am ok to co-mentor this project with you.

If you are still ok, I will submit it.
Yeah, I am ok. grateful.
I submitted it. You should see it and be able to register as a co-mentor there:

Yes, I saw it. Thanks!

I am still looking at the code in ref-filter.c these two days, I deeply
doubt whether we can add a --no-sort option to git for-each-ref,

Inspired by Peff's experimental patches [1], I think the --no-sort option
may improve the performance of ref-filter by avoiding the execution
of ref_array_sort().

I don't know if this can be regarded as a micro-project.
If you think that such a patch is likely to be accepted and that would
take you less than a few hours to prepare and submit, then it can
probably be regarded as a micro-project, and you are welcome to send a
pull request to add it to the micro-project page.
Eh, It may not be simple, I can try to solve it by myself first, but I
think it is
appropriate for novices to complete this mini-project to understand the
technical details of ref-filter.

This may require the help of this patch of mine: [2]
which use list api for ref_sorting. This may can help eliminate unnecessary
sorting.

[2] https://lore.kernel.org/git/pull.1025.git.1629882532.gitgitgadget@gmail.com/ (local)
Then please add this information to the description of the micro-project.
ok!
Thanks!
Thanks.
