- Tested with nose 1.3.0

* Mock by Michael Foord used for tests

- Tested with 1.0.1

* Coverage - used for tests coverage

The list of dependencies are listed in /requirements.txt and /test-requirements.txt. The installer takes care of installing them for you though.

If you have downloaded the source code:

python setup.py install

or if you want to obtain a copy from the Pypi repository:

pip install gitpython

Both commands will install the required package dependencies.

A distribution package can be obtained for manual installation at:

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/GitPython

The easiest way to run test is by using [tox](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/tox) a wrapper around virtualenv. It will take care of setting up environnements with the proper dependencies installed and execute test commands. To install it simply:

pip install tox

Then run:

tox

GitPython's git repo is available on GitHub, which can be browsed at [github](https://github.com/gitpython-developers/GitPython) and cloned like that:

VERSION = v.readline().strip()

v.close()

with open('requirements.txt') as reqs_file:

requirements = reqs_file.read().splitlines()
