A few scripted Porcelain implementations pretend as if the routine to show
their own help messages are triggered upon "git cmd --help", but a command
line parser of "git" will hijack such a request and shows the manpage for
the cmd subcommand.
Leaving the code to handle such input is simply misleading.

Formalize our dependency on perl 5.8, bumped from 5.6.[12]. We already
used the three-arg form of open() which was introduced in 5.6.1, but
t/t9700/test.pl explicitly depended on 5.6.2.
However git-add--interactive.pl has been failing on the 5.6 line since
it was introduced in v1.5.0-rc0~12^2~2 back in 2006 due to this open
syntax:
sub run_cmd_pipe {
my $fh = undef;
open($fh, '-|', @_) or die;
return <$fh>;
}
Which when executed dies on "Can't use an undefined value as
filehandle reference". Several of our tests also fail on 5.6 (even
more when compiled with NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER=1):
t2016-checkout-patch.sh
t3904-stash-patch.sh
t3701-add-interactive.sh
t7105-reset-patch.sh
t7501-commit.sh
t9700-perl-git.sh
Our code is bitrotting on 5.6 with no-one interested in fixing it, and
pinning us to such an ancient release of Perl is keeping us from using
useful features introduced in the 5.8 release.
The 5.6 series is now over 10 years old, and the 5.6.2 maintenance
release almost 7. 5.8 on the other hand is more than 8 years old.
All the modern Unix-like operating systems have now upgraded to it or
a later version, and 5.8 packages are available for old IRIX, AIX
Solaris and Tru64 systems.

The Gitosis single-account Git/ssh hosting system runs git commands
through git-shell after confirming that the connecting user is
authorized to access the requested repository. This works well for
upload-pack and receive-pack, which take a repository argument through
git-shell. This doesn't work so well for `cvs server', which is passed
through literally, with no arguments. Allowing arguments risks
sneaking in `--export-all', so that restriction should be maintained.
Despite that, passing a repository root is necessary for per-user
access control by the hosting software, and passing a base path
improves usability without weakening security. Thus, git-cvsserver
needs to come up with these values at runtime by some other
means. Since git-shell preserves the environment for other purposes,
the environment can carry these arguments as well.
Thus, modify git-cvsserver to read $GIT_CVSSERVER_{BASE_PATH,ROOT} in
the absence of equivalent command line arguments.

CVS server was running the hook before the update action was
actually done. This performs the update before the hook is called.
The original commit that introduced the current incorrect behavior
was 394d66d "git-cvsserver runs hooks/post-update". The error in
ordering of the hook call appears to have gone unnoticed, but since
git-cvsserver is supposed to emulate receive-pack, it stands to
reason that the hook should be run *after* the update. Since this
behavior is inconsistent with recieve-pack, users are either:
1) not using post-update hooks with git-cvsserver;
2) using post-update hooks that don't care whether they are
called before or after the actual update occurs;
3) using post-update hooks *only* with git-cvsserver, and
relying on the hook being called just before the update.
This patch would affect only users in case 3. These users are
depending on fairly obviously wrong behavior, and moreover they can
simply change their current post-update into post-recieve hooks,
and their systems will work correctly again.

The CVS protocol documentation, found at
http://www.wandisco.com/techpubs/cvs-protocol.pdf
states the following about the 'noop' command:
Response expected: yes. This request is a null command
in the sense that it doesn't do anything, but merely
(as with any other requests expecting a response) sends
back any responses pertaining to pending errors, pending
Notified responses, etc.
In accordance with this, the correct way to handle the 'noop'
command, when issued by a client, is to call req_EMPTY.
The 'noop' command is called by some CVS clients, notably
TortoiseCVS, thus making it desirable for git-cvsserver to
respond to the command rather than choking on it as unknown.

CVS username is generated from local part email address.
We take the whole local part but restrict the character set to the
Portable Filename Character Set, which is used for Unix login names
according to Single Unix Specification v3.
This will obviously report different usernames from existing repositories
for commits with the local part of the author e-mail address that contains
characters outside the PFCS. Hopefully this won't break an old CVS

always shown afresh to the CVS clients and not kept on the client side.

Make git-cvsserver understand some options inspired by
git-daemon, namely --base-path, --export-all, --strict-paths.
Also allow the caller to specify a whitelist of allowed
directories, again similar to git-daemon.
While already adding option parsing also support the common
--help and --version options.
Rationale:
While the gitcvs.enabled configuration option already
offers means to limit git-cvsserver access to a repository,
there are some use cases where other methods of access
control prove to be more useful.
E.g. if setting up a pserver for a collection of public
repositories one might want limit the exported repositories
to exactly the directory this collection is located whithout
having to worry about other repositories that might lie around
with the configuration variable set (never trust your users ;)
