 GitPython is a python library used to interact with git repositories, high-level like git-porcelain,
 or low-level like git-plumbing.
 
-It provides abstractions of git objects for easy access of repository data, and additionally
-allows you to access the git repository more directly using either a pure python implementation,
-or the faster, but more resource intensive _git command_ implementation.

-The object database implementation is optimized for handling large quantities of objects and large datasets,
-which is achieved by using low-level structures and data streaming.
