Google Summer of Code 2026 #9445

@ThomasWaldmann

Description

@ThomasWaldmann

Ideas Page: https://github.com/borgbase/vorta/wiki/Google-Summer-of-Code-2026-Ideas

Mentors:

  • We need more mentors for the borgbackup tasks (see ideas page).
  • I personally can do backup mentoring, but will only be primary mentor for 1 student/project. For that project, a backup mentor is needed also.
  • We do not know yet how many projects we will get from Google / PSF, but if a potential project has no potential primary mentor, it rather won't happen.

Students:

  • If you have questions or remarks, please ask below (only about borgbackup tasks, vorta and borgmatic have separate sites).
  • Get familiar with the code, tools and development workflow.
  • Check this issue tracker and the labels, pick something you like (also check if somebody else is already working on it, see issue assignee and open PRs), open a pull request, watch the CI tests if they succeed, check for feedback from us.
  • Developer Docs: https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/en/master/development.html
