Nice start.  A few other details; I recently did this for git-p4
(python).

.gitignore: ignore the auto-generated script, e.g. when
git-foo.py is built into git-foo.

INSTALL: note language requirements if odd (see python section)

command-list.txt: categorization of commands for git(1) etc.

RelNotes: Junio generally does this.


Also please read Documentation/technical/api-builtin.txt to
see how to add a built-in command.  It also has comments that
are identical for both built-in and stand-alone command.  Could
be that your text would better go near or with that one, as perhaps
api-command.txt.
