The use of this statement is generally discouraged, and is too intrusive
for us: it forces the HTTP requests made by the API to contain only valid
UTF-8 characters. This would break the upload of binary files.

While we're there, simplify the code a bit: since log --format=%s anyway
shows the subject line as a single line, no need to split to take the
first line.

The previous version implemented the possibility to log in a wiki, but
the username and password had to be provided as configuration variables.
We add the possibility to use the Git credential system to prompt
the password.
The support if implemented with generic functions that mimic the C API,
designed to be usable from other contexts in the future (i.e. they may
migrate to Git.pm if someone is interested).
While we're there, do a bit of refactoring in mw_connect_maybe.

On the MediaWiki side, the author information is just the MediaWiki login
of the contributor. The import turns it into login@$wiki_name to create
the author's email address on the wiki side. But we don't want this to
include the HTTP password if it's present in the URL ...

When the wiki uses e.g. LDAP for authentication, the web interface shows
a popup to allow the user to chose an authentication domain, and we need
to use lgdomain in the API at login time.

We already have a check that no new revisions are on the wiki at the
beginning of the push, but this didn't handle concurrent accesses to the
wiki.

Push can not set the commit note "mediawiki_revision:" and update the
remote reference. This avoids having to "git pull --rebase" after each
push, and is probably more natural. Make it the default, but let it be
configurable with mediawiki.dumbPush or remote.<remotename>.dumbPush.

Implement a gate between git and mediawiki, allowing git users to push
and pull objects from mediawiki just as one would do with a classic git
repository thanks to remote-helpers.
The following packages need to be installed (available on common
repositories):
libmediawiki-api-perl
libdatetime-format-iso8601-perl
Use remote helpers in order to be as transparent as possible to the git
user.
Download Mediawiki revisions through the Mediawiki API and then
fast-import into git.
Mediawiki revision number and git commits are linked thanks to notes
bound to commits.
The import part is done on a refs/mediawiki/<remote> branch before
coming to refs/remote/origin/master (Huge thanks to Jonathan Nieder
for his help)
We use UTF-8 everywhere: use encoding 'utf8'; does most of the job, but
we also read the output of Git commands in UTF-8 with the small helper
run_git, and write to the console (STDERR) in UTF-8. This allows a
seamless use of non-ascii characters in page titles, but hasn't been
tested on non-UTF-8 systems. In particular, UTF-8 encoding for filenames
could raise problems if different file systems handle UTF-8 filenames
differently. A uri_escape of mediawiki filenames could be imaginable, and
is still to be discussed further.
Partial cloning is supported using one of:
git clone -c remote.origin.pages='A_Page Another_Page' mediawiki::http://wikiurl
git clone -c remote.origin.categories='Some_Category' mediawiki::http://wikiurl
git clone -c remote.origin.shallow='True' mediawiki::http://wikiurl
Thanks to notes metadata, it is possible to compare remote and local last
mediawiki revision to warn non-fast forward pushes and "everything
up-to-date" case.
When allowed, push looks for each commit between remotes/origin/master
and HEAD, catches every blob related to these commit and push them in
chronological order. To do so, it uses git rev-list --children HEAD and
travels the tree from remotes/origin/master to HEAD through children. In
other words:
* Shortest path from remotes/origin/master to HEAD
* For each commit encountered, push blobs related to this commit
