d301f18160 Git::SVN::*: add missing "NAME" section to perldoc
lexgrog(1) relies on the NAME section to find a manpage's subject's
name and description for easy access later using "man -k".  Add the
section it expects.

Noticed using lintian.

e9263e4580 git-svn, perl/Git.pm: extend and use Git->prompt method for querying users
git-svn reads usernames and other user queries from an interactive
terminal. This cause GUIs (w/o STDIN connected) to hang waiting forever
for git-svn to complete (http://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/issues/detail?id=967).

This change extends the Git::prompt helper, so that it can also be used
for non password queries, and makes use of it instead of using
hand-rolled prompt-response code that only works with the interactive
terminal.

38ecf3a35d git-svn, perl/Git.pm: add central method for prompting passwords
git-svn reads passwords from an interactive terminal or by using
GIT_ASKPASS helper tool. This cause GUIs (w/o STDIN connected) to hang
waiting forever for git-svn to complete
(http://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/issues/detail?id=967).

Commit 56a853b62c also tried to solve
this issue, but was incomplete as described above.

Instead of using hand-rolled prompt-response code that only works with the
interactive terminal, a reusable prompt() method is introduced in this commit.

c102f4cf72 git-svn: move Git::SVN::Prompt into its own file
git-svn.perl is very long (around 6500 lines) and although it is
nicely split into modules, some new readers do not even notice --- it
is too distracting to see all this functionality collected in a single
file.

Splitting it into multiple files would make it easier for people
to read individual modules straight through and to experiment with
components separately.

Let's start with Git::SVN::Prompt.  For simplicity, we install this as
a module in the standard search path, just like the existing Git and
Git::I18N modules.  In the process, add a manpage explaining its
interface and that it is not likely to be useful for other projects to
avoid confusion.
