   You need to know some C to contribute to a package written in C.  
   Similarly, I think it's reasonable to expect knowledge of some git to 
   explore the history of a package using git.  That's different from being 
   fluent in git magic, but in general greater fluency with any tool will 
   allow using it to better effect.

One doesn't need to be fluent in git to be able to write C ...
