Not sure that this renaming is a good choice. Usually we are using the -git suffix to indicate that the package is VCS one and builds from git. So I'm afraid such renaming will cause a some confusion for users.
May be python-pythongit is a good alternative for the package name.

Request #4104 has been rejected by Muflone [1]:
This is poor choice to rename the python-gitpython package to python- git as the -git suffix refer to the git version of a package. The users will expect the python-git package will offer the git version of the python package.
Please delete the python{,2}-git package and keep the python-gitpython
