Equinox'22 presents a 3 day long event FOSS Weekend presented by GitHub and Axios, where participants will get the opportunity to handle issues related to the technology that interests you and win exciting prizes from GitHub. This event will be a great chance for growing developers of 1st year to practice and brush up their skills in git, which is a very essential part of their learning journey.
Event Timeline: 00:00 AM 11th March to 11:59 PM 13th March, 2022
- Create a pull request for the issues and/or instructions highlighted in the readme of the following projects.
- Try to complete the
must dotasks before you move further, because they will give you a very good foundational knowledge about git by visiting the repositories, and looking through the issues. - The issues are tagged easy, to hard depending on difficulty.
- You should try to start by trying to solve the easy issues before progressing to the harder ones.
- View the leaderboard at https://foss.iiitl.ac.in/
-
If the issue has a
to-be-assignedlabel, ask for the issue to be assigned to you, and start working on it only after you recieve confirmation that you have been assigned. These issues will be assigned only to 3 participants on a first come first serve basis, and each of them will have to submit a PR fixing it within 3 hours from the time of assignment. -
Out of these 3 PRs, all satisfactory ones will be scored, and 1 or 2 may get a bonus for exceptional work. If all the PRs have roughly the same quality of content, the earliest submission may get a bonus. Bonus scores are at the discretion of the repository owners.
-
If you realise after getting yourself assigned an issue, that you cannot work on it due to any reason, be sure to unassign yourself, to give a chance to others who may want to work on the issue. Also leave a comment informing everyone that this issue is again open to assignment.
