This allows a helper to say that, when it handles "import
refs/heads/topic", the script it outputs will actually write to
refs/svn/origin/branches/topic; therefore, transport-helper should
read it from the latter location after git-fast-import completes.

This command, supported if the "import" capability is advertized,
allows a helper to support fetching by outputting a git-fast-import
stream.
If both "fetch" and "import" are advertized, git itself will use
"fetch" (although other users may use "import" in this case).

transport_get() can call transport_native_helper_init() to have list and
fetch-ref operations handled by running a separate program as:
git remote-<something> <remote> [<url>]
This program then accepts, on its stdin, "list" and "fetch <hex>
<name>" commands; the former prints out a list of available refs and
either their hashes or what they are symrefs to, while the latter
fetches them into the local object database and prints a newline when done.
