I think "got import" is indeed the better place, especially if it's
not only used to initially populate a repository, but also for
creating vendor branches as you indicate.

I guess the got/gotadmin split is patterned after svn/svnadmin, and
that seems a good guide to follow ("svn import", "svnadmin create").
