Any comment about upcoming Git Rev News edition 118

[chriscool]

A currently mostly empty draft is there:

https://github.com/git/git.github.io/blob/master/rev_news/drafts/edition-118.md

Feel free to comment in this issue, suggest topics, suggest persons to interview, or use the edit button (that looks like a pen) to edit and create a pull request with the changes you would like.

Let's try to publish this edition around the end of December 2024!

Thanks!

Two Outreachy interns have been selected and should start working on their internship on December 9th. They have sent emails to the mailing list:

@jnareb maybe we could add a link to this LWN article about adding Rust to Git?

Yes, I agree that would be a good idea (perhaps with reference to Edition 82?).

@jnareb maybe we could add a link to this short one about upcoming Git 2.48 too?

That's a good idea. Thanks @chriscool for the suggestion.

By the way, do you have any reference to discussion about choosing "Meson to be the primary build tool for Git in the future"?
