Embed git in package
package.ps1 fetches PortableGit and embeds it in the package. This eliminates all but one runtime dependency (MSVC++ Redistributable). * Move Python into a new FOSS folder.

-limitations of the ``future`` module and differences between Py2 and Py3 that are not (yet) handled
-===================================================================================================
-
-The following attributes on functions in Python 3 are not provided in Python
-2.7:
-
-__func__: see six.get_method_function()
-__self__: see six.get_method_self()
-__self__.__class__
-
-
-Limitations of the ``futurize`` script
---------------------------------------
-The ``futurize`` script is not yet mature; like ``2to3``, on which it is based,
-it makes mistakes. Nevertheless, it should be useful for automatically
-performing a lot of the repetitive code-substitution tasks when porting from
-Py2 to Py2/3.
-
-Some new Python 3.3 features that cause SyntaxErrors on earlier versions
-are not currently handled by the ``futurize`` script. This includes:
-
-- ``yield ... from`` syntax for generators in Py3.3
-
-- ``raise ... from`` syntax for exceptions. (This is simple to fix
- manually by creating a temporary variable.)
-
-Also:
-
-- Usage of ``file('myfile', 'w')`` as a synonym for ``open`` doesn't seem
- to be converted currently.
-
-- ``isinstance(var, basestring)`` should sometimes be converted to
- ``isinstance(var, str) or isinstance(var, bytes)``, or sometimes simply
- ``isinstance(var, str)``, depending on the context. Currently it is always
- converted to ``isinstance(var, str)``.
-
-- Caveats with bytes indexing!::
-
- b'\x00'[0] != 0
- b'\x01'[0] != 1
-
- ``futurize`` does not yet wrap all byte-string literals in a ``bytes()``
- call. This is on the to-do list. See :ref:`bytes-object` for more information.
-
-
-Notes
------
-- Ensure you are using new-style classes on Py2. Py3 doesn't require
- inheritance from ``object`` for this, but Py2 does. ``pasteurize``
- adds this back in automatically, but ensure you do this too
- when writing your classes, otherwise weird breakage when e.g. calling
- ``super()`` may occur.
