This summit is part of a broader effort to make the Git version control system support inclusive open source projects and their contributors.
Git needs to take the needs of all its users into account, not just those currently participating in the Git project.
Git Inclusion Summit is a partnership between the Git Core team at Google, Google OSPO (Open Source Program Office), and Microsoft OSPO. This is an initial inclusion event for the core contributors to Git. Plans for a 2021 follow-up event for a broader set of Git end users will be discussed during the summit.
The Git project's Code of Conduct applies.
Access to the summit is free; anyone interested is encouraged to register. Registration is required for attendance.
We're providing pre-reading material on a range of topics. This list will grow over time.
