I think the "Git" you see above is clearly the "stupid content
tracker Git", not a particular implementation.  It is more about the
data model of Git than our particular implementation of it.  jgit, a
Java implementation of Git, does not care about the gibberish
in the "--BEGIN PGP..." block the same way we don't care.
