I have a number of older projects that I want to bring into a git

primarily a collection of tarballs today.
There is a script which will import sources from multiple tarballs,
creating a commit with the contents of each tarball. It's in the git
repository under contrib/fast-import/import-tars.perl.
I wasn't aware of those scripts. I'll be having a look at the zip import
script for my needs.

I had a look at the script but Python isn't part of the Msysgit install, so the example wouldn't run.

Also I couldn't see how the "fast_import.write(" method was being created - my ignorance of Python? Otherwise I could look at scripting it.
