Note to self: @jnareb left the following comment on the issue for the previous edition:

I wonder if it be worth including the series of instructions on how to obfuscate timestamps in Git called Git-Privacy - see also discussion on git mailing list.

[jnareb]

It may become something interesting:

• Fetching too many tags? - contains interesting info about how Git fetches from remote repository

[chriscool]

Sorry but I caught a cold just after coming back from vacation and now I am quite sick and won't be able to send a draft today. Will try to do it tomorrow though.

[jnareb]

Would Google Summer of Code be resolved?

[sivaraam]

The final evaluation deadline for this year is September 4 and the results would be announced only by September 5 [ timeline ].

So, I think we could talk about the GSoC conclusion only in the next edition.

[chriscool]

Yeah, right. We have filled out Kousik's evaluation already but we cannot talk about this yet.

[chriscool]

Just sent the draft email. It's not yet on https://lore.kernel.org/git/ or https://public-inbox.org/git/ though.

@jnareb thanks for your links!

By the way I think the following link might be interesting too:

@mjaix, I just merged a typo and grammo fix PR from @stepnem (thanks!) in 4caa3a6.

[mjaix]

@Christcool  It went somewhat late on my side, too ... about to start the proof- reading now. Hope that's ok.

[mjaix]

Supplied the usual tiny fixes with 2806ea3 .

@mjaix yeah, sure it's Ok thanks for your fixes!

It may become something interesting:

* [Fetching too many tags?](https://public-inbox.org/git/[email protected]/t/#u) - contains interesting info about how Git fetches from remote repository

@jnareb thanks for this suggestion! I wrote an article based on your previous suggestion (about the "Git Privacy" email thread) for this edition, but I may take a look at this for next one.
