Hi Amanda,

I am Amanda Shafack, an Outreachy 2020 applicant who wishes to
contribute to the "Add Git protocol support to Wireshark" project.

In addition, I have some experience coding in C and I hope to enhance
my skill set by contributing to this project.

I am currently going through the project description and contribution
guidelines.

Welcome!

Since this project would involve Git (for Git protocol) and Wireshark
(where the dissector goes), we're comfortable working with you on
contributions to both Git and Wireshark during the application[1]
period.

https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/-/wikis/Development/ has some
pointers on getting started with Wireshark development.  I'm cc-ing
the wireshark developers list in case they have suggestions for an
approachable "first patch" idea to get used to that project's
contribution flow.

Ahem, actually cc-ing that list this time.  Sorry for the noise.

It's also a good idea to build and run wireshark and see if anything
strikes your eye as something you'd be interested in seeing work
differently.

For Git we have some suggestions for microprojects at
https://git.github.io/Outreachy-21-Microprojects/

Thanks for writing, and I look forward to working with you.  These are
two open source projects that I love and I hope you enjoy working with
them, too. :)

Sincerely,
Jonathan
