Fortunately pypy provides support for a lot of the CPython API, so the changes are minimal. The most important changes are: - constructors always get a keyword argument dictionary, even if no keyword arguments are passed - trying to assign to a read-only attribute raises TypeError instead of AttributeError Apart from that, pypy does not provide MAXPATHLEN. There is a hack in place currently, but there is only place that's using that macro, and there shouldn't be a need for it much longer. This fixes libgit2#209.

This fixes #209.
According to Travis docs, the PPA packages they use have a faulty pypy-dev package currently, so we won't be able to run the tests there 😦
