   1Sample programs callable through git-shell.  Place a directory named
   2'git-shell-commands' in the home directory of a user whose shell is
   3git-shell.  Then anyone logging in as that user will be able to run
   4executables in the 'git-shell-commands' directory.

   6Provided commands:
   7
   8help: Prints out the names of available commands.  When run
   9interactively, git-shell will automatically run 'help' on startup,
  10provided it exists.
  11
  12list: Displays any bare repository whose name ends with ".git" under
  13user's home directory.  No other git repositories are visible,
  14although they might be clonable through git-shell.  'list' is designed
  15to minimize the number of calls to git that must be made in finding
  16available repositories; if your setup has additional repositories that
  17should be user-discoverable, you may wish to modify 'list'
  18accordingly.
