[PATCH 1/2] filter-branch: provide the convenience functions also for commit filters

From
Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
Date

Message-ID
<Pine.LNX.4.64.0707181650080.14781@racer.site>

By sourcing git-filter-branch and stopping after the function definitions, the commit filter can now access the convenience functions like "map".

This is done automatically if you specify a commit filter.
