git wrapper: add --git-dir=<path> and --bare options
With this, you can say git --bare repack -a -d inside a bare repository, and it will actually work. While at it, also move the --version, --help and --exec-path options to the handle_options() function. While at documenting the new options, also document the --paginate option.
