Software required
-----------------

* Python 2.4 and up
* git

Note
----

Usually assuming that a commit has an amount of time spent on it is usually wrong.

But the tool is usually used for organizational structure requiring timesheet in a
strict format like who did what and when. You have been warned.

dtt is a real tracking system when you are doing development. gitlog2timesheet objective is to avoid the burden of creating
timesheets when you have already git repositories around.
