[PATCH] git cvsimport sanity checking

This patch adds some sanity checking to git-cvsimport-script,
specifically forcing the use of cvsps -x (to get the latest information
from the repository, rather than whatever is in the cache) and aborting
early if cvsps does not produce any output.

I debated removing the $MODULE directory following an abort, but I
eventually decided leaving stuff behind would make debugging easier.  On
the other hand, this patch should help with the "cvsimport left me with
an empty repository" complaints.

Call cvsps with the -x flag, to get the current state of the repository,
and abort the cvs import early if cvsps does not produce any output.

[PATCH] read-tree: fix too strong index requirement #5ALT

This fixes too strong index requirement 3-way merge enforces in
one case: the same file is added in both branches.

In this case, the original code insisted that if the index file
has that path, it must match our branch and be up-to-date.
However in this particular case, it only has to match it, and
can be dirty.  We just need to make sure that we keep the
work-tree copy instead of checking out the merge result.

The resolution of such a path, however, cannot be left to
outside script, because we will not keep the original stage0
entries for unmerged paths when read-tree finishes, and at that
point, the knowledge of "if we resolve it to match the new file
added in both branches, the merge succeeds and the work tree
would not lose information, but we should _not_ update the work
tree from the resulting index file" is lost.  For this reason,
the now code needs to resolve this case (#5ALT) internally.

This affects some existing tests in the test suite, but all in
positive ways.  In t1000 (3-way test), this #5ALT case now gets
one stage0 entry, instead of an identical stage2 and stage3
entry pair, for such a path, and one test that checked for merge
failure (because the test assumed the "stricter-than-necessary"
behaviour) does not have to fail anymore.  In t1005 (emu23
test), two tests that involves a case where the work tree
already had a change introduced in the upstream (aka "merged
head"), the merge succeeds instead of failing.

[PATCH] read-tree --emu23.

This new flag causes two-way fast forward to internally use the
three-way merge mechanism.  This behaviour is intended to offer
a better fast forward semantics when used in a dirty work tree.

The new test t1005 is parallel to the existing t1001 "pure
2-way" tests, but some parts that are commented out would fail.
These failures are due to three-way merge enforcing too strict
index requirements for cases that could succeed.  This problem
will be addressed by later patches.

Without even changing three-way mechanism, the --emu23 two-way
fast forward already gives the user an easier-to-handle merge
result when a file that "merged head" updates has local
modifications.  This is demonstrated as "case 16" test in t1005.

 - A broken pair (aka "complete rewrite"), does not match D
