[PATCH 2 of 2] requires: write requires file on commit

[Drew Gottlieb]

If I'm not mistaken, that rewrites the hashes of old commits as it clones
them to manifestv2 format, correct? What we're seeking is a way to have a
repository with manifestv1 to switch to using manifestv2 for future
commits, without modifying old hashes.
