Fork should use relative file urls

[gitblit]

Originally reported on Google Code with ID 190

A fork'd repo appears to put in an absolute file path in the "origin" field:

file:///mnt/devutil/gitblit/gitblit-1.2.0/../data/git/salsa/core-utils.git


I was expecting this to be a HTTP url of the repo or a relative file path. I'm afraid
of what might happen/break when an upgrade is performed or if the gitblit distribution
is moved to a different place on the filesystem.

Valid concern or just look the other way?

URLs are absolute, not relative so we can't use a relative file url.  Because the repository
data folder can be relocated we will have to track fork parent as a field within the
repository config.  This must be noted for those upgrading from 1.2.x.
