lots of doc changes reflecting "push to admin" is default now :)
...
- added comments to easy install to help do it manually
- README: some stuff moved to tips doc, brief summary of extras
(over gitosis) added
- INSTALL: major revamp, easy install and manual install,
much shorter and much more readable!
plus other docs changed as needed, and updated the tips doc to roll in
some details from "update.mkd" in the "ml" branch

compile/update hook: COMPILED FILE CHANGE -- PLEASE READ BELOW
...
Summary:
DONT forget to run src/gl-compile-conf as the last step in the upgrade
Details:
The compiled file format has changed quite a bit, to make it easier for the
rebel edition coming up :-)
compile:
- we don't split RW/RW+ into individual perms anymore
- we store the info required for the first level check separately now:
(repo, R/W, user)
- the order for second level check is now:
repo, user, [{ref=>perms}...] (list of hashes)
update hook logic: the first refex that:
- matches the incoming ref, AND
- contains the perm you're trying to use,
causes the match loop to exit with success. Fallthrough is failure

compile+doc/3: deal with older gits

syntax still works anyway

is now "expand_list" and serves generically. The example conf has also been
updated correspondingly

it seems gitosis silently ignores config errors. It can't do anything else,
considering *when* the config file is parsed (on every access!)

...
- logs go into $GL_ADMINDIR/logs by default, named by year-month
- logfile name template (including dir prefix) now in $GL_LOGT
- two new env vars passed down: GL_TS and GL_LOG (timestamp, logfilename)
- log messages timestamps more compact, fields tab-delimited
- old and new SHAs cut to 14 characters
