Sounds good.
As I mentioned up thread, you could feel free to share the project
description here or open a PR by adding it directly to this document:
https://github.com/git/git.github.io/blob/master/SoC-2022-Ideas.md
(note: currently returns a 404; it should work when the
related PR [pr-1] is merged)
Just to be sure, would you be willing to mentor in case a student
picks this project?
[pr-1]: https://github.com/git/git.github.io/pull/540
