In this edition, we could mention the upcoming changes to GSoC covered in this blog.

I think it would be good idea to thank Jeff King for his contributions to Git and Git Development Community, as he is taking a break starting at the end of December.

Should we include A brief history of code search at GitHub in Git Rev News? It is more GitHub specific than Git specific, but might be interesting to our audience.

[chriscool]

@jnareb yeah, I am definitely ok with links to articles that are more GitHub, GitLab or other specific than Git specific but possibly interesting to our audience.

"Jakub, Markus, Kaartic and I plan to publish this edition on Monday December 30th in the evening."

December 30th is Thursday, not Monday.

@jnareb thanks for noticing! I replied to myself to correct this.

My list of links to various articles and tools landed.

• In 1e75fa9 I am not sure if I should not split the link to article and the list of tools, moving list of tools to the appropriate subsection.
• In 5c69fa9 I have added A brief history of code search at GitHub, to make it easily revert-ible.

[chriscool]

@jnareb I am ok with keeping articles and tools together when they are related, so your commit looks good to me. Thanks!
