If the user has already configured a workspace, use these values
when re-running 'repo init'.
Otherwise, if the user has global name and e-mail set, use these.
It's always possible to override this and be prompted by specifying
--config-name when running 'repo init'.

A default manifest URL can be specified using:
git config --global repo-manifest.<id>.url <url>
A default manifest server can be specified using:
git config --global repo-manifest.<id>.server <url>
A default git mirror reference can be specified using:
git config --global repo-manifest.<id>.reference <path>
This will allow the user to use 'repo init -u <id>' as
a shorter alternative to specifying the full URL.
Also, manifest server will not have to be specified in the
manifest XML and the reference will not have to be specified
on the command line. If they are, they will override these
default values however.

An HTTP (or HTTPS) based remote server may now offer a 'clone.bundle'
file in each repository's Git directory. Over an http:// or https://
remote repo will first ask for '$URL/clone.bundle', and if present
download this to bootstrap the local client, rather than relying
on the native Git transport to initialize the new repository.
Bundles may be hosted elsewhere. The client automatically follows a
HTTP 302 redirect to acquire the bundle file. This allows servers
to direct clients to cached copies residing on content delivery
networks, where the bundle may be closer to the end-user.
Bundle downloads are resumeable from where they last left off,
allowing clients to initialize large repositories even when the
connection gets interrupted.
If a bundle does not exist for a repository (a HTTP 404 response
code is returned for '$URL/clone.bundle'), the native Git transport
is used instead. If the client is performing a shallow sync, the
bundle transport is not used, as there is no way to embed shallow
data into the bundle.

Windows allows the environment to have unicode values.
This will cause Python to fail to execute the command.

The complete help text is printed, so the program executed successfully.
Some tools (like OpenGrok) detects the availibility of a program by
running it with a known set of options and check the return code.
It is an easy and portable way of checking for the existence of a program
instead of searching the path (and handle extensions) ourselves.

Use git clone to initialize a new repository, and when possible
allow callers to use --reference to reuse an existing checkout as
the initial object storage area for the new checkout.

We'll soon be supporting two different manifest formats, but we
can't immediately remove support for the current XML one that is
in wide spread use within Android.

The mirror option downloads a complete forrest (as described by the
manifest) and creates a replica of the remote repositories rather
than a client working directory. This permits other clients to
sync off the mirror site.
A mirror can be positioned in a "DMZ", where the mirror executes
"repo sync" to obtain changes from the external upstream and
clients inside the protected zone operate off the mirror only,
and therefore do not require direct git:// access to the external
upstream repositories.

Many Linux distributions are including python2.5 by default, as
it is the latest stable release of the language. Using python2.4
(and asking users to specifically install it) is just cruel and
unusual punishment.
