I had the same question when packaging up git-revise (a Python-based
program that is a git extension, so it is an executable script), and the
advice I received was if the package is on PyPi, then it is probably best
to use a python-* name to make it discoverable (
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/python-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/QYWJ7UUEBSSQ5QAPJSVDWPLM5KOYRZW5/).
I decided to name the source RPM python-git-revise (instead of just
git-revise), and then included a subpackage with the shortname so that it
was still searchable/installable easily.
