 This pull request contains two patches that speed up Formaline's git repo
 update:

 1. it uses hard-links to build a mock directory hierarchy if possible so
 that it can use a single call to git-add to update the repo
 1. it only passes those thorns that have changed to update-git-repo.pl so
 that git has fewer files to inspect for changes
