Description

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.
