Hello,

My name is Saksham Mittal, and I am about to enter university. I have
experience with Linux, MySQL, Python and have learnt C as well. I would
also like to contribute to git as well. I have spent the past week
trying to look through the source code and am going over the
documentation as well.

I am also quite eager to pick up some bugs and try my hand at fixing
them. However, I am finding it difficult to find bugs people have reported.

Most searches of the mailing list for "[BUG]", "bug" etc. yield scores
of results for patches other people have already submitted, which are
likely being looked over by experienced maintainers anyway. How do we
find issues in the mailing list, especially ones that are better suited
to a beginner?

Cheers,
Saksham
