Paul's Blog Google Summer of Code 2018

Week 2

Hello world,

Today is the last day of community bonding period. How is it going? It has been a busy week with many university assignments (also took part in a programming contest) and did not have as much free time as I hoped. However, this is what I achieved this week:

  • Looked more into documentation, Joel’s patches and reviews. Tried to understand the process of conversion by comparing the shell source code and the C code. I started to update the patches and fix issues raised during reviews.

  • Had some questions regarding the patch, reviews and Git good practices, which got answered by Johannes Schindelin and Thomas Gummerer (thank you, you are great!).

  • Discussed more with Git community members on IRC.

The coding period has officially started and I expect to submit a PR on Github to make it easier for my mentor and the community to review my work.

Don’t forget about my colleagues’ blogs, Pratik Karki and Alban Gruin.

Thanks!
