It’s February so it is no surprise that we want to celebrate all the things we love about open source: the people, the connectivity, and the releases.

Wall of Fame 🤩 : These folks make our category so great!

• @mateusloubach: Shared their perspective in a comment about transferring projects from a personal account to an org. They included helpful context, workarounds, and a TLDR for those who just wanted the summary.
• @diepei: A reply that includes a link to the docs, a screenshot, and an actionable answer made this comment on LFS messages world class 🙇.
• @thevindu-w: Broke down the code line by line that is needed to see changes on files upstream from a forked repo. Their answer packs in a ton of learning while remaining straightforward and approachable.
