Okay, so that means it broadly is an acceptance of PEP 481. Hopefully
someone who's been involved in the discussions can check over the PEP
text and adjust as necessary to make it accurate to what's going to
happen.

That's what the PEP is for. Here's the link:

https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0481/

Yes, git is a capable tool. But so is Mercurial, and the arguments
weren't primarily based on differences in functionality (which are
pretty minor). It's mainly about the network effect.
