I think there's been a misunderstanding. I think the proposal was to
have Emily and Jonathan, who are both significant contributors to Git,
doing the mentoring from the Git side, along with someone from the
Wireshark side. I don't think we know yet if anyone will be interested
in working on it, but it seems from the response to be a proposal that
has interest in both projects.
Feel free to correct me if I've misunderstood.

I agree that a Git dissector would be an awesome addition to Wireshark,
for all the reasons mentioned, and I do hope someone is able to pick it
up. I'd personally find such a feature very useful, and I know some
colleagues who probably would as well.
