+high-level like git-porcelain, or low-level like git-plumbing.
+
+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
+@command{git} command implementation.")
