-GitPython
-==========
+===================
+DEPRECATION WARNING
+===================
-GitPython is a python library used to interact with git repositories, high-level like git-porcelain, or low-level like git-plumbing.
+This branch contains an abandoned experiment which aimed to change the architecture of git-python entirely. However, as it was never finished, it was good for quite a bit of confusion only.
-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.
+For the most recent state, please refer to the default branch you find on github.
-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.
