Felipe Contreras 3b705268f5 remote-testgit: fix direction of marks 
Basically this is what we want:

  == pull ==

	testgit			transport-helper

	* export ->		import

	# testgit.marks		git.marks

  == push ==

	testgit			transport-helper

	* import		<- export

	# testgit.marks		git.marks

Each side should be agnostic of the other side. Because testgit.marks
(our helper marks) could be anything, not necessarily a format parsable
by fast-export or fast-import. In this test they happen to be compatible,
because we use those tools, but in the real world it would be something
completely different. For example, they might be mapping marks to
mercurial revisions (certainly not parsable by fast-import/export).

This is what we have:

  == pull ==

	testgit			transport-helper

	* export ->		import

	# testgit.marks		git.marks

  == push ==

	testgit			transport-helper

	* import		<- export

	# git.marks		testgit.marks

The only reason this is working is that git.marks and testgit.marks are
roughly the same.

This new behavior used to not be possible before due to a bug in
fast-export, but with the bug fixed, it works fine.

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

	GIT - the stupid content tracker

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

"git" can mean anything, depending on your mood.

 - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not
   actually used by any common UNIX command.  The fact that it is a
   mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant.
 - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the
   dictionary of slang.
 - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually
   works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room.
 - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks

Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an
unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations
and full access to internals.

Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License.
It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of
hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano.

Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions.

See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see
Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and
Documentation/git-commandname.txt for documentation of each command.
If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be
read with "man gittutorial" or "git help tutorial", and the
documentation of each command with "man git-commandname" or "git help
commandname".

CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt
("man gitcvs-migration" or "git help cvs-migration" if git is
installed).

Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/
including full documentation and Git related tools.

The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git
mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature
requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read
Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission).
To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in
the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are
available at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival
sites.

The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in
git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and
the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good
reference for project status, development direction and
remaining tasks.
