git status with python

Question

I want to check if there are uncommited changes, or if there are unpushed commits in a git repository with python.

I could use subprocess, but a library would be better.

On pypi are several libraries with different quality. At the moment I don't know which one to choose.

I would recommend GitPython which is full featured, very well documented and easy to use IMO. For more info, check out this answer
