Sitaram Chamarty e970327cc1 rc: get rid of GL_GITCONFIG_WILD
was only for efficiency even when it was relevant, and now it's just in
the way, making useless noises.

Sitaram Chamarty 442d7ca29c mirroring doc updates:
- caution about wild repos needing to be manually created on the
    receiving side (because nothing gets auto-created now)

  - caution about the right and wrong way to "delete" a config variable

  - a few other minor fixes

Sitaram Chamarty b11d44e036 (mirroring) make cron jobs easier to write
gl-mirror-shell will now take a list of slaves and/or keys, expanding
the keys in place.  See doc for even more improvements and conveniences.

Sitaram Chamarty e3b1fdfd69 (mirroring doc) explain how this is more than just 'backup' 2011-08-14 08:20:03 +05:30
Sitaram Chamarty a3ffc9d8fd (mirroring) reject non-local pushes if GL_HOSTNAME not set
We previously said all mirroring features are disabled if GL_HOSTNAME is
not set.

But what if, after mirroring has been setup, and master/slaves defined
for a repo, a slave admin fat-fingers the RC file and accidentally
comments out GL_HOSTNAME?  We might end up violating RULE NUMBER ONE!

Sitaram Chamarty 6a5d564917 (minor) less important docs have "## title" now
this is so the make-gh-pages (not part of gitolite) script can boldface
the ones which have "# title"

Sitaram Chamarty fda10c2805 mirroring support...
conf/example.gitolite.rc
  - "slave mode" flag to disable pushes and "list of slaves"

hooks/common/post-receive.mirrorpush
  - code to push to the mirror, creating the repo if needed

src/mirror-shell
  - shell for master pushing to a slave, because we don't actually want
    to go through gitolite itself, yet we have to take care of
    $REPO_BASE being wherever.  And of course we have to set
    GL_BYPASS_UPDATE_HOOK to 1 for the push to happen!

src/gl-mirror-sync
  - manually runnable program to sync from current server to another
