Commit Message

Joseph Myers Jan. 18, 2020, 1:42 a.m. UTC 
update_version_svn has been replaced by update_version_git.  The
scripts directory in ~gccadmin is now a symlink into a gcc-checkout
directory.  Various commands using SVN are replaced by git commands
and instructions for updating the old git mirror are removed.
Instructions for adding a new basepoint tag are added.

Committed.
