Nice. Yup, <prereq> is really nice in all regards. > I would suggest dropping the "Requires Python 2.4" comment, or > maybe moving it somewhere else with a change to explain that > it is git-remote-testgit that requires Python ≥ 2.4 > (rather than the remote helper facility in general). I put it there to make the connection between 24, 0x02040000, and 2.4. I think trying to avoid confusion like that isn't a problem in a test file, it's pretty obvious from the context that the prereq only has to do with the test. Someone looking up remote helpers is going to do that in the documentation, not in some t/ test file.
