Hahahaha!

This is not meant as laughing _about_ you... Along with others, I worked 
very hard to get rid of that naughty dependency to Python.

IMHO the best way for Git is to go builtin. It is the only way to 
guarantee portability to many, many platforms without a dependency 
nightmare.

Who knows, maybe Git will run on VMS yet?

Ciao,
