Dear OpenAFS Community, I hope this message finds you well. My name is Sawez Faisal, and I’m excited to share my proposal for Google Summer of Code 2025, focusing on implementing Bash and Zsh shell completions for OpenAFS command-line tools
The goal of this project is to make OpenAFS commands more intuitive and efficient to use by adding intelligent tab-completion. I plan to start with static completions for the most common commands, then expand to dynamic flag suggestions by parsing --help outputs and man pages. This approach ensures the completions stay up to date as the tools evolve. My background in C and shell scripting, along with my experience working on CLI tools, gives me a solid foundation for this task. I’ve attached my full proposal for your review and would greatly appreciate any feedback, especially on technical feasibility and alignment with OpenAFS’s priorities. I’m particularly interested in hearing which commands or use cases the community finds most challenging and would benefit most from this improvement. Best regards, Sawez Faisal [email protected]
