    GitPython tries very hard to find a suitable git executable on the system it is executed on, and I could imagine that this for some reason fails.
    Before starting your program, or before importing GitPython, you can set the GIT_PYTHON_GIT_EXECUTABLE to the executable to use, like in GIT_PYTHON_GIT_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/git python myscript.py. That will force GitPython to use the specified executable, which usually works.

    Hope that helps.
