Subject: [PATCH 02/13] fast-export: support done feature

From: Sverre Rabbelier <[email-masked]>
Date: Sat, 28 Aug 2010 22:45:29 -0500

If fast-export is being used to generate a fast-import stream that
will be used afterwards it is desirable to indicate the end of the
stream with the new 'done' command.

Add a flag that causes fast-export to end with 'done'.
---

  Also very trivial, obviously if the corresponding feature is
  removed the flag should be named differently.
