This way users can see how much is left during fetch. Its
especially useful when most syncs are no-ops but there are
hundreds of repositories to poll.

This permits usage of 'repo sync' while offline, as we bypass the
network based portions of the code and do only the local sync.
An example use case might be:
repo sync -n ; # while we have network
... some time later ...
repo sync -l ; # while without network, come up to date

The -d flag moves the project back to a detached HEAD state,
matching what is listed in the manifest. This can be useful to
set a client to something stable (or at least well-known), such as
before a sequence of 'repo download' commands are used to get some
changes for testing.

This makes it easier to update all repositories, without actually
impacting the working directory, or learning about how to use
`repo forall -c 'git fetch $REPO_REMOTE' `.

This is only meant to be passed through while repo upgrades itself
during a sync. It should never be something a user invokes on
their own.

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.

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.

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.
