And it's not even necessary -- the git data model is simple. It's simple enough that you can generate valid commits in about a page lines of python, with no libraries. The rest is just packing files for efficiency, and finding the difference between hash lists for syncing and pulling. The command line interface to git is insanely complicated, confusing, and unnecessarily difficult to use, but this isn't a result of the git data model. It's definitely possible, to give a complete and accurate description of the data model, even using examples from `git cat-file` to walk through the commit history by hand. I've also got a simple demo that generates a complete repo with a commit. You can manipulate the resulting repo from git. There are 65 non-comment lines of code.
