  Description     : microframework for writing GitHub webhooks in Python

This library allows writing GitHub webhook handlers in Python Flask
apps pretty trivially. Conceptually it's similar to src:libcgi-github-webhook-perl.
While it does rely on an upstream (proprietary) service, it's pretty stable,
with no real changes in a few years. I do plan to send a patch upstream to
remove the six dependency.

We use this for various CI/etc. integrations for SecureDrop[1], so I'm
planning to maintain this in my professional/work capacity.
