Hi, I’m Pablo :)

— “A donde fueres, haz lo que vieres” I believe that being able to see something helps a lot with the comprehension so expect a lot of schemas about what I do from now on. First, I’ll explain what this project consists of in simple terms. This project is the continuation of Eric Ju’s and Calvin Wan’s work on remote-object-info for the cat-file command plus extending it to support %(objecttype). ...

Last april 30th I started my GSoC at Git, and it’s been a few days already. This week has been more about what I’m gonna do rather than doing, but I think that having a clear plan will be worth. This week I had the GSoC 2026 welcome meeting, I also have scheduled meetings with my mentors and the other three Git GSoC students. I’m excited about it :). As part of my work is rebasing previous work, I’ve been reading what is left to do, good thing that most of what I have to do I had it already noted on my proposal. Rebasing was harder than what I expected, but mostly because I’m not used to having to deal with manual conflicts as most of the time I code alone, I knew one file got deleted so I had to trace what had happened with it. ...

This post might be longer than others because it summarizes ~2 months of thoughts and the process of applying to GSoC. Around 2 months before the GSoC opening for proposals submissions a friend of mine Paco told me about GSoC and encouraged me to apply. I’ve never heard about it before, but it sounded really interesting. I started looking for organizations and projects where I could fit, I thought about Llvm due to my interest in compilers sounded like a good fit, but I haven’t got into llvm as much as I’d like to and the projects weren’t something I felt a deep interest in. ...

Hi! My name is Pablo, this is my first time blogging, so… don’t expect amazing writing skills but I’ll do my best to try to share my experience through my journey at GSoC Git 2026 mentored by Karthik who works at Gitlab and Chandra. I’m 19 years old and a second year Computer Science student at the University of Murcia, Spain. I love programming and I’m really interested about compilers and how things work under the hood. I mostly program in C but I also have experience with Java and typescript. ...
