[Python-Dev] PEP: Collecting information about git

[Larry Hastings]

I don't follow.  Because you're an advocate of Python switching to git 
and GitHub, we should have a git tutorial committed as a Python 
Enhancement Proposal?

I'm not attempting to stir up a conversation about git vs hg.  I only 
question the idea that a git tutorial should be a PEP, when it has 
literally nothing to do with enhancing Python.  There are countless 
other venues through which Oleg could publish this information--a blog, 
a wiki, or even a series of postings to this newsgroup. I would 
encourage him to withdraw the PEP and publish through one of those.
