Abstract
========

This Informational PEP collects information about git. There is, of
course, a lot of documentation for git, so the PEP concentrates on
more complex issues, topics and scenarios.

The plan is to extend the PEP in the future collecting information
about equivalence of Mercurial and git scenarios to help migrating
Python development from Mercurial to git.

The author of the PEP doesn't currently plan to write a Process PEP on
migration from Mercurial to git.
