LibGit2Sharp is currently in need of contributors and maintenance. The project was conceived a decade ago by @nulltoken, who led it fearlessly for many years. After that, there was no single individual maintainer of the project, but instead had a committee of a few part-time maintainers. At this point, development and maintenance stalled.

The project needs core contributors and maintainers to take it to the next level and guide it into the future.

Do you want to contribute?

Hi
I've contributed small fixes in the past and was just thinking this week that I should get involved again in some form.

Hello there, we're using libgit2sharp in my company (https://github.com/ubisoft) and we could get involved too.

Hi,

I'm one of the developers of the fork https://github.com/mendix/libgit2sharp . It was my decision to fork the project for the company's needs, and now I would like to give something back to the community.

I can't do that on behalf of my company so I would like to offer my personal resources to maintain LibGit2Sharp.

I've never done such a thing before and I'm afraid I won't be able to dedicate a lot of time, but at least I would be able to contribute back whatever we do in our fork.

Hi,
we at Octopus Deploy are also making use of libgit2sharp and have recently forked to make modifications and contributions to this repo. We have provided sponsorship to other OSS projects in the past and are happy to consider how we can help keep this project alive.

What next steps would assist in allowing us to help maintain this libgit2sharp in a way that could be most productive? Myself and others are happy to continue to donate our time if nothing else. It sounds like there is a few other voices in the community who feel likewise.

@bording @ethomson Has there been any progress made on this? The project is currently in a limbo state which is sad to see, not only because it is a very important package to the C# ecosystem, but also because there are a lot of people / organizations who do want to contribute and help with maintenance.
