I'm running a python script that exports xml from a database, converts the record to PDF, then attempts to upload both the xml and pdf files to a github repository. The export and pdf conversion work fine, but the process then hangs and outputs the following error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):

WindowsError: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified
My problem is that I'm not exactly sure where the script is failing. To which file is "WindowsError: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified" referring? How do I fix it? Thanks!
The script calls gittle (high-level python git library) which executes dulwich (low-level python git wrapper) which runs ssh and fails. It seems ssh.exe is not in your PATH.
