Implement mirror executor (issue-5)
The mirror executor will fetch ref updates for repository mirrors. This feature is disabled by default and can be enabled by setting git.enableMirroring=true. The period between update checks is configurable, but it is global. An individual rpeository may not set it's own update schedule. Requirements: 1. you must manually clone the repository using native git git clone --mirror git://somewhere.com/myrepo.git 2. the "origin" remote must be the mirror source 3. the "origin" repository must be accessible without authentication OR the credentials must be embedded in the origin url (not recommended) Notes: 1. "origin" SSH urls are untested and not likely to work 2. mirrors cloned while Gitblit is running are likely to require clearing the gitblit cache (link on the repositories page of an administrator account) 3. Gitblit will automatically repair any invalid fetch refspecs with a "//" sequence. Change-Id: I4bbe3fb2df106366ae4c2313596d0fab0dfcac46
