(adc fork) fork is now fast and space-efficient on the server

uses "git clone -l" then manually sets up the gl-creater and hooks

(thanks to Jeff and the kde gang for asking ;-)

or some such incantation.
**Implementation note**: you might notice that this script does not just do a
"git clone ...". This is because creating a repo has to be done via gitolite.
Otherwise, hooks won't get setup, and the all-important "gl-creater" file
showing who owns the repo won't get created.
So now we have an actual command to just create a repo and do nothing else:
`ssh git@server git-init \'reponame\'`. [Yes; those single quotes are
required. Deal with it.]
