+Git Object Database.
+
+GitDB is a pure-Python git object database.
+
+GitDB allows you to access bare git repositories for reading and writing.
+It aims at allowing full access to loose objects as well as packs with
+performance and scalability in mind. It operates exclusively on streams,
+allowing to operate on large objects with a small memory footprint.
