What is fixtures-git?
Fixtures git is an open source Python library that adheres to the fixtures API defined by https://pypi.python.org/pypi/fixtures
It was initially developed as part of git-upstream tests to make it easy to construct git repositories with various layouts rather than trying to mock/stub git's behaviour.
It is intended to allow developers to define a git repo layout using a list definition of the commit nodes and it will then create it under an isolated path to allow testing of interaction between the tooling written by the developer and different git repository histories.

Writing a patch
All code submissions must be pep8 and pyflakes clean. CI will
automatically reject them if they are not. The easiest way to do that is
to run tox before submitting code
for review in Gerrit. It will run pep8 and
pyflakes in the same manner as the automated test suite
that will run on proposed patchsets.
Support
Is via the git-upstream community which is is found on the #git-upstream channel on chat.freenode.net
