In general, I would recommend to pick a project that is of personal interest to you. If you have used Git for more than a week, I am _certain_ that you found things you wish Git did better. That would be the kind of project that I'd think would be ideal. > I have read the coding-style and contributing guidelines stuff from the > website and am eager to start writing code.

There are two public bug trackers for the Git project, although I must make clear that neither has been officially accepted by the Git project as authoritative. The official bug tracker is the Git mailing list (which lacks any tooling, of course, to find all reported and still unfixed bugs). The two aforementioned bug trackers can be found here: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/issues and https://crbug.com/git If you want some easy project, I would suggest to look at the first bug tracker because some tickets in there are labeled with "good first issue", e.g. this one: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/issues/636 Ciao, Johannes
