The parameter for filter-path is an executable that will receive the service
name, the client hostname and path to the repos the client requests as as
arguments. It is then the responsibility of the script to return a zero
terminated string on its stdout with the real path of the target repository.

After interpolation, the path is validated against the directory
whitelist.
+--path-filter=executable::
+ To support a more flexible directory layout a path filter script
+ can be used. The executable will receive the service name (upload-pack,
+ upload-archive or receive-pack), the client hostname and the request git
+ directory as arguments. The executable must return a zero-terminated string
+ on stdout which is the real path 'git-daemon' should serve. This is useful
+ when --interpolated-path doesn't buy you enough flexibility. You could for
+ instance keep support for old clone urls if you rename your repository, or
+ fetch a custom url-mapping from a third-party repo manager application, or
+ map deeply nested repository directories to a more sensible layout for the
+ outside world.
