+This project try to help doing handy operations with git when 
+dealing with project versioning and tags on python project -
+or at leat for project using PEP440 versionning or SemVer.
+
+Goal is to keep it compact and not covering too much other things.
+This is the reason it is one single file with nested classes.
+=> Design is on purpose poorly expandable to keep the scope maintainable.
+
+This library is maid for repository using tag as version.
+
+
+This module is the main gitversionhelper file, containing all the code.
+
+Read the read me for more information.
+Check the unittest s for usage samples.
