Re: [GSoC 2014] Replacing object loading/writing layer by libgit2

2014-04-07 Thread Guanglin Xu
Hi all,

I withdraw this proposal because I realize that I won't be eligible to
work in July and August as an F-1 student.

Good luck to other applicants!

 Hello,

 My name is Guanglin Xu. I am a second-year master student at Sun
 Yat-sen University in China, majoring in Software Engineering. I am
 also a perspective PhD student matriculated in the US. I'm planning on
 doing summer projects which I can work remotely. The GSoC 2014 program
 of Git project is a great choice.

 I am kind of a skillful Git user with 4 years' experience in 3
 projects. For example, I am a Top 5 contributor in LibVMI project
 (https://github.com/bdpayne/libvmi); I host a team-made mobile app in
 Github (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ying-yue/id689566688?ls=1mt=8).
 For more of my projects see here
 (http://www.andrew.cmu.edu/user/guanglin)

 To get familiar with the flow of Git development, I worked on
 microproject [2] and had corresponding conversations with Eric
 Sunshine, Jacopo Notarstefano and Sun He in threads. Thank you for
 their comments on my work.

 Now I've submitted my proposal to google-melange. In brief, I propose
 to replace object loading/writing layer by libgit2, which comes from
 the GSoC 2014 ideas page of Git project. Particularly, since I didn't
 realize where the hardest part is when I looked into the initial aim
 of this idea, I added a performance requirement that the new
 implementation should at least not run slower than previous one. Maybe
 I underestimated specific challenge in working with Git, suggestions
 or warnings for this topic are all welcomed.

 Thanks for your consideration for GSoC 2014.
