Hi,

The website speed.python.org is made of different tools which were
written for Mercurial, but CPython moved to Git. These tools should be
updated.

Tools:

* The Django application "codespeed"
* scripts/bench_cpython.py and scripts/bench_revisions.py of
https://github.com/python/performance/
* my private tool to benchmark a patch -- short bash script, sorry I
should put it in python/performance/scripts/ as well
* maybe others

Moreover, all benchmark results was generated using Mercurial commit
identifiers. We must remove all of them and recompute all results
using Git commit identifiers. It's not a big deal. It's just that
someone has to do it.

I spent almost a year to fix all these minor things to get a working
speed.python.org, so I'm not ready to do it right now. I may do the
required changes later ;-)

If codespeed doesn't support Git, I suggest to drop the list of
changes between two commits on the https://speed.python.org/changes/
tab. I'm now trying to only compute benchmarks manually something like
once per week, because the UI doesn't handle well too many points, and
because performance don't change every day ;-) The changes/ tab is
very slow when there is a long list of commits, whereas it's very easy
to get this list using Git directly, GitHub, or whatever. I don't
think that it's very useful on the website.

Victor
