Why? Or: why that one, and not the others? Also, you might want to mention 
your contribution in the commit message itself.

It seems the two functions you add (notify() and warn()) have a different 
indentation than the existing code (which uses 4 spaces). Please fix.

(When I first introduced these Python patches, there was a discussion on the 
differences in indentation/style between the Git C code, and Python code, 
and it was decided to follow the Python conventions, to make the code more 
inviting to the Python community.)
