Consider publishing git-imerge on PyPI

[ccharles]

It would be very helpful if git-imerge was available via PyPI so it could be installed via pip or similar tools.

Yes, that would be helpful for some people. Is there somebody around who could summarize what would be needed to make git-imerge into a PyPI package (maybe even in the form of a PR)? Do we just need a setup.py file, or would we have to rearrange the sources? Every time I look into Python's packaging tools, it seems like there is no real consensus about best practices and my gumption ebbs away. Maybe that situation has changed.

Sorry if the question has already been asked and answered but has it been considered to supply git imerge to the base git itself as a new command, or even make it a part of the merge command itself (perhaps with a flag, like -i)?

README says it is available from PyPI https://github.com/mhagger/git-imerge#installation but it is not - https://pypi.org/project/git-imerge/

According to #143 ，I think it will be uploaded to PyPI soon. @mhagger

Bump 🙂 I still can't install git-imerge using pip3 install --user git-imerge:

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement git-imerge (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for git-imerge

There is now really a release on PyPI, so this should work now. Please reopen the issue if you are still having problems.
