Right now, the project is clearly missing contribution guidelines, but now that it's a bit more public these will be added soon, possibly along with some tickets that are ready for pickup. For now I am very focussed on implementation. That said, I have created a quick issue for you with a small tasks and high value: https://github.com/Byron/gitoxide/issues/7 Thanks a lot for your consideration <3

Great project - more power to you for driving it so far.

My 2 cents. I think rust-analyzer offers a great new dev onboarding experience. issues labelled with has-instructions usually have a a link to the relevant snippet of code in the repo and sometimes even the stub of a failing unit test. While it might be obvious to you, the author, how and where to find the necessary code, it enables a great many people to send patches.

Witness the number of contributors with <10 commits https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer/graphs/contri...

If you want to increase adoption, please borrow as many dev experience tricks from rust-analyzer as possible
