python3 + pygit: "No module named 'repository'"

When using python3 with the pygit dependency, I hit an error that says:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "generate.py", line 8, in <module>
    from git         import Repo, NoSuchPathError, InvalidGitRepositoryError
  File "/mnt/c/Users/foo/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/git/__init__.py", line 6, in <module>
    from repository import Repository, InvalidRepositoryError
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'repository'

If I find in site-packages, I find a module called repository. What's the deal?

You meant to use a different module called gitpython. You'll want to uninstall pygit and get gitpython instead.

Pro-tip: use a requirements.txt file to lock down your dependencies to prevent this from happening.
