* git_remote_helpers: remove little used Python libraryJohn Keeping2013-09-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When it was originally added, the git_remote_helpers library was used as part of the tests of the remote-helper interface, but since commit fc407f9 (Add new simplified git-remote-testgit, 2012-11-28) a simple shell script is used for this. A search on Ohloh [1] indicates that this library isn't used by any external projects and even the Python remote helpers in contrib/ don't use this library, so it is only used by its own test suite. Since this is the only Python library in Git, removing it will make packaging easier as the Python scripts only need to be installed for one version of Python, whereas the library should be installed for all available versions.

* Add Python support library for remote helpersSverre Rabbelier2009-11-24
This patch introduces parts of a Python package called "git_remote_helpers" containing the building blocks for remote helpers written in Python. No actual remote helpers are part of this patch, this patch only includes the common basics needed to start writing such helpers. The patch includes the necessary Makefile additions to build and install the git_remote_helpers Python package along with the rest of Git. This patch is based on Johan Herland's git_remote_cvs patch and has been improved by the following contributions: - David Aguilar: Lots of Python coding style fixes - David Aguilar: DESTDIR support in Makefile Cc: David Aguilar <davvid@gmail.com> Cc: Johan Herland <johan@herland.net> Signed-off-by: Sverre Rabbelier <srabbelier@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Johan Herland <johan@herland.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
