Hi everyone!

A draft of a new Git Rev News edition is available here:

  https://github.com/git/git.github.io/blob/master/rev_news/drafts/edition-99.md

Everyone is welcome to contribute in any section either by editing the
above page on GitHub and sending a pull request, or by commenting on
this GitHub issue:

  https://github.com/git/git.github.io/issues/643

You can also reply to this email.

In general all kinds of contributions, for example proofreading,
suggestions for articles or links, help on the issues in GitHub,
volunteering for being interviewed and so on, are very much
appreciated.

I tried to Cc everyone who appears in this edition, but maybe I missed
some people, sorry about that.

Jakub, Markus, Kaartic and I plan to publish this edition very late on
Wednesday May 31st.

Thanks,
Christian.

I think it's odd to have second person (we) when the text is written in
third-person perspective. Thus, abouve should have been:

Thanks.

I think "we" is the first person.

Thanks for your suggestion and sorry for forgetting to take it into account.

I must say that I think it's Ok to use "we" instead of "the Git
community" in Git Rev News. I think we have often taken this
perspective before.

By the way, does someone knows why the announce of edition 99 doesn't
seem to have appeared yet on https://lore.kernel.org/git/ :

https://lore.kernel.org/git/?q=s%3A%22Git+Rev+News+edition+99%22

while it appeared on https://public-inbox.org/git/ :

https://public-inbox.org/git/CAP8UFD2MNFjEjrGVyj__d4f95nC=D7csKajYzdtMFkfXKmrixQ@mail.gmail.com/

Thanks!
