Hi,

Does it mean, that it will be possible to write git-<cmd> scripts in
python or, in example, port bash and / or perl scripts to python?

I'm asking because bash+perl is a huge stopper for Windows platform,
which requires basic unix environment to work, while python support
for Windows is excellent and most of Windows developers already use
python.
