Instead of having to cut-and-paste the result, write it to the tag
directory directly. Also, start an editor for the tag message, rather
than just reading it from stdin.
During the mailing list discussion on renaming GIT_ environment
variables, people felt that having one environment that lets the
user (or Porcelain) specify both SHA1_FILE_DIRECTORY (now
GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY) and GIT_INDEX_FILE for the default layout
would be handy. This change introduces GIT_DIR environment
variable, from which the defaults for GIT_INDEX_FILE and
GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY are derived. When GIT_DIR is not defined,
it defaults to ".git". GIT_INDEX_FILE defaults to
"$GIT_DIR/index" and GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY defaults to
"$GIT_DIR/objects".
Special thanks for ideas and discussions go to Petr Baudis and
Daniel Barkalow. Bugs are mine ;-)
