So you are starting the GSoC early! Great!
When (or before) it really starts, just make sure you put your work on a
public Git repository and you send status updates regularly (weekly if
possible).

I think that the TODO and DONE file format will need at one point to include
options and it is simpler if this change is done early. Using a cherry-pick
specific file to keep the options is not very generic for a sequencer that could
be used for many things.
For example, as we have rebase --interactive, we will probably want to have
cherry-pick --interactive, and when editing the TODO file we might want to use
different cherry-pick options when picking different commits.
This would also make the different cherry-pick options available when using
rebase --interactive once it uses the sequencer.

Thanks,
