git-crypt: created a script for unlocking the repo.

Browse source 
Having a non functionning git config makes unlocking the repo impossible.
However, since encrypting the git config itself probably wasn't expected by the
git-crypt developers, this does happen in this setup.
This implements a small workaround.

# Use this script to decrypt the repo ~manually~.
# This is necessary because cloning it in ~/.config/git will leave your git
# config broken until the repo is decrypted.
# However, decrypting with git-crypt unlock is not possible without a working
# git config (it needs it to figure out which gpg key to use for decrypting)
