First Task Definition

Definition

• The typical attendee has 1-2 semesters of programming background (naturally this depends on the year they are, and the program they are in, and their programming experiences outside of college).
• We aim that someone experienced with the code should be able to fix it within 15-30 minutes, including any work required to isolate the issue.
• Students who attend are probably using git (and version control in general) for the first time, and will probably spend a substantial amount of time cleaning up their patch before submitting, and discussing good commit log messages with mentors at the event.
• Documentation bugs are totally germane, so long as the documentation issue doesn't require an extremely deep understanding of the project or code.
