 Tuesday, September 15th 17:00-21:00 UTC (10am-2pm PDT)

 ## Purpose

 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.

 ## Overview

 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.
