Very good point. In the past, there wasn't much choice anyway since
creating a CVS repository required a lot more work, but indeed, with
current DVCS such a behavior makes sense again.
Now, most relevant backends will also want to know where you want to put
the root of your new repository. Should we let the backend function
`create-repo' prompt for this, or should we move it to the generic part
of the code? You seem to have taken the first choice, whereas I'd lean
towards the second.
