I think this depends is needed based on some easy evaluation of git.

git (at least git-native) provides one example python script, and some python 
modules.. these should be broken off into other sub packages to help eliminate 
the -runtime- python requirement (I'm assuming they're both optional for general 
git usage....)

But someone with more knowledge with git then me should go that.
