  Description     : command line client for opentimestamps

Command-line tool to create and validate timestamp proofs with the
OpenTimestamps protocol, using the Bitcoin blockchain as a timestamp
notary. Additionally this package provides timestamping of PGP signed
Git commits, and verification of timestamps for both Git commits as a
whole, and individual files within a Git repository.

This package has little dependencies and I consider an open source way of
generating timestamp proofs in the bitcoin blockchain as a useful
feature.

I am quite fluent in Python and have packaged a few python libs for
private use. 

This package depends on opentimestamps python library for which I will
file another ITP.
