By creating a background ssh "control master" process which lives
for the duration of our sync cycle we can easily cut the time for
a no-op sync of 132 projects from 60s to 18s.

When trying to read log output from many projects at once it can
be difficult to make sense of which messages came from where.
For many professional developers it is common to want to view the
last week's worth of your work, so you can write a weekly summary
of your activity for your status report.
This is easier with the new -p option:
repo forall -pc git log --reverse --since=1.week.ago --author=sop
produces a report of all commits written by me in the last week,
formatted in a paged output display, with headers inserted in
front of each project's output.
Where this can be even more useful is with git log's pickaxe,
e.g. now we can use:
repo forall -pc git log -Sbar v1.0..v1.1
to locate all additions or removals of the symbol 'bar' since v1.0,
up to and including v1.1. Before displaying the matching commits in
a project, a project header is shown, giving the user some context
information for the matching results.

The value of the varible TRACE was copied during the import, which
happens before the --trace option can be processed. So instead we
now use a function to determine if the value is set, as the function
can be safely copied early during import.

This has the same effect as saying "export REPO_TRACE=1" in
your shell prior to starting repo, but is documented in the
command usage and perhaps easier to use.

If a client was created with "repo init --mirror" then there are
no working directories present, and no files checked out. Using
a command like "repo status" in this context makes no sense, and
actually throws back a Pytyon traceback at the console when the
underlying commands fail out.
We now tag commands with the MirrorSafeCommand type if they are
able to be executed within a mirror directory safely. Using a
command in a mirror which lacks this base class results in a
useful error letting you know the command isn't supported.

If a manifest specifies an invalid revision property, give the
user a better error message detaling the problem, instead of an
ugly Python traceback with a strange Git error message.

This hook is evaluated by `git gc --auto` to determine if it is a
good idea to execute a GC at this time, or defer it to some later
date. When working on a laptop its a good idea to avoid GC if you
are on battery power as the extra CPU and disk IO would consume a
decent amount of the charge.
The hook is the standard sample hook from git.git contrib/hooks,
last modified in git.git by 84ed4c5d117d72f02cc918e413b9861a9d2846d7.
I added the GPLv2 header to the script to ensure the license notice
is clear, as it does not match repo's own APLv2 license.
We only update hooks during initial repository creation or on
a repo sync. This way we don't incur huge overheads from the
hook stat operations during "repo status" or even the normal
"repo sync" cases.

This way we can build more than one Manifest instance in memory
and not muck around with the Editor configuration each time we
build a new instance.

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.
