Well, it seems you already need to understand a lot of things to get

This is Python2.7 as comes bundled with the Yocto / ELDK releases.
Yes, I am aware that most (all?) "standard" distros will provide these
moduules, but for the tool chain maker it would be very helpful to
have a list of such required modules / dependencies.

Usually: git checkout -b my-branch master

But many of these branches may have been created weeks or months ago,
so probably using older versions of git, in case this matters.

No problem.  This is not a critical thing, just a wish list.  Xmas is
approaching, you know :-)
