share: host the git repository alongside the store Before this changeset, the internal git repository were always stored in '.hg/' even when the repository was a 'share' of another one. With this patch, hg-git respect the '.hg/sharedpath' file and stores the internal git repository and associated caches in the original repository. This allows multiple 'shares' to use the same git repository. This does not affect the 'intree' variant where the repository is directly stored inside the working copy.

GENERAL
=======
* work fine with eclipse plugin or tortoise-hg

MAPPING ISSUES
==============
* work in Git on a named branch created in Hg is forward-ported to be named branch commits in Hg and stripped back out if re-exported


REMOTE/BRANCH STUFF
===================
* explain what branch mapping policy determined when updating refs
* error nicer if pushing to remote without push access (over git://)

WEBSITE
===========
* more usage documentation
* screencast


SPEED/EFFICIENCY
================
* dulwich improvements
  - don't send blobs/trees already on server
  - thin packs
  - packfile creation benchmarking (seems to take a while sometimes)
  - at least provide status output

MAYBE
==========
* submodules?
* .gitignore, etc - try to convert?
  - (probably not automatically, but perhaps a generator?)
