(short) documentation for the testgit remote helper

Browse Source 
While it's not a command meant to be used by actual users (hence, not
mentionned in git(1)), this command is a very precious help for
remote-helpers authors.

The best place for such technical doc is the source code, but users may
not find it without a link in a manpage.

----
git-remote-testgit - Example remote-helper
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
git clone testgit::<source-repo> [<destination>]
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This command is a simple remote-helper, that is used both as a
testcase for the remote-helper functionality, and as an example to
show remote-helper authors one possible implementation.
The best way to learn more is to read the comments and source code in
'git-remote-testgit.py'.

# This is a Git <-> Git importer/exporter, that simply uses git
# fast-import and git fast-export to consume and produce fast-import
# streams.

# To understand better the way things work, one can activate debug
# traces by setting (to any value) the environment variables
# GIT_TRANSPORT_HELPER_DEBUG and GIT_DEBUG_TESTGIT, to see messages
# from the transport-helper side, or from this example remote-helper.
