Re: Help with git for testing Addon Manager

OK, it turns out it's something strange with GitPython -- when I let the library do the checkout I am ending up with a repo that does not respond as expected. But if I check out by hand everything works fine, using the same underlying version of Git. I'm a little frustrated by GitPython right now -- I try not to succumb to "not invented here" syndrome too often, but it does seem like for our uses I could just call git directly rather than using the library. It's just that I'll end up re-writing the library in the end :D .

@chennes is there an upstream ticket (https://github.com/gitpython-developers/GitPython) for this bug?

I don't know: I spent my day removing our dependency on GitPython instead. I think it was productive!
