Hi! You can find my contribution/micro task for "Extension to pull files from git repository" here : Database schema for storing information about files being tracked by proposed git extension.

About the extension: GitExtension
Git extension is a facility that allows users to include code from remote repositories into wiki pages. The need for this extension was felt because for the time being, people copy paste code from repositories, so we could get them put of the hassle of copy-pasting. A feature for putting up pastes like pastebin sites would also be der.

Project Overview
Things I plan to do during the internship is:
 * Allow users to put up pastes under a wiki heading or separately by using tags.
 * Allow others to start discussion on pastes.
 * Archiving of pastes for future reference.
 * Allow the users to include files directly from remote git repositories.
