[Python-Dev] PEP 481 - Migrate Some Supporting Repositories to Git and Github (original) (raw)

One argument that keeps coming up is transferability of knowledge: knowing git and/or GitHub, as many seem to, it therefore becomes easier to commit to the Python ecosystem.

What about the transferability of Python knowledge? Because I know Python, I can customize hg; because I know Python I can customize Roundup.

I do not choose tools simply because they are written in Python -- I choose them because, being written in Python, I can work on them if I need to: I can enhance them, I can fix them, I can learn from them.
