One project that could be interesting for GSoC (and the timing should work out) is to complete the sparse index integrations for some of the less critical commands. Some examples include 'git mv' and 'git rm', I think. This of course depends on some ongoing work to integrate more of the critical commands that we implemented early in microsoft/git, such as Victoria's current series which is leading to a 'git stash' integration and a series I have waiting in the wings for a 'git sparse-checkout' integration. However, I think we have a decent paved-path for a new contributor to jump in and get started on the remaining commands. The granularity means that the project has multiple milestones that can be hit without an all-in-one series. >   - Multiple Sizes of Projects: In 2021, project size was reduced >     (~175 hours).

I think this project would fit in the "medium" category. Thanks, -Stolee
