In this episode we talk to Git contributor and maintainer of Git
for Windows, Johannes Schindelin. He has a lot of thoughts and
ideas on development, community and code reviews, especially in
open source and especially in the development of Git itself.

We talk to Johannes about the difficulties of contributing to Git
itself, and tools that could make the experience more user
friendly, like for example public-inbox, which is both a mailing
list archive and a Git repository.
