Alex Vandiver 70aed5e26c upgrade-zulip-from-git: init, then add remote.
30457ecd02 removed the `--mirror` from
initial clones, but did not add back `--bare`, which `--mirror`
implies.  This leads to `/srv/zulip.git` having a working tree in it,
with a `/srv/zulip.git/.git` directory.

This is mostly harmless, and since the bug was recent, not worth
introducing additional complexity into the upgrade process to handle.

Calling `git clone --bare`, however, would clone the refs into
`refs/heads/`, not the `refs/remotes/origin/` we want.  Instead, use
`git init --bare`, followed by `git remote add origin`.  The remote
will be fetched by the usual `git fetch --all --prune` which is below.

This directory contains scripts that:

  • Generally do not require access to Django or the database (those are "management commands"), and thus are suitable to run operationally.

  • Are useful for managing a production deployment of Zulip (many are also used in a Zulip development environment, though development-only scripts live in tools/).
