cvsexportcommit: Create config option for CVS dir

Trent Piepho · gitster · commit 325abb7b1a5b · 2008-05-21T13:07:41.000-07:00
For a given project the directory used with the -w option is almost always
the same each time.  Let it be specified with 'cvsexportcommit.cvsdir' so
it's not necessary to manually add it with -w each time.
