Re: Bug#492520: ITP: python-git -- python-git is a Python library used to interact with Git repositories.



Hi,

please check Developers Reference §6.2.2 on how to write a synopsis. I
guess that “Python library to interact with Git repositories” would be
nicer. Unsure “Git” deserves a ‘G’.

I thought addressing the user directly (through “you”) was frown upon,
but I can't find any reference right now. I think you'd be better off
using something a bit more neutral, like “GitPython provides object
model to access git repositories. Once a repository object created, it
can be traversed to find parents commits, trees, blobs, etc.”.

I'm not sure it's worth mentioning the authors in the long description
either. See §6.2.3 of the same document for what matters there.

No need to Cc me if you keep -devel in the loop.
