Prefer HTTPS to HTTP for gnu.org

2017-10-02T02:59:01+00:00

This fixes some URLs I omitted from my previous pass,
notably those in lists.gnu.org.  Although lists.gnu.org
does not yet support TLS 1.1, TLS 1.0 is better than nothing.
* lisp/erc/erc.el (erc-official-location):
* lisp/mail/emacsbug.el (report-emacs-bug):
Use https:, not http:.

; Move stray item from admin/notes/repo to CONTRIBUTE

* admin/notes/repo: Remove stray item.
* CONTRIBUTE: Move it here, fix incorrect references to "branch".

* admin/notes/repo: Fix a few obsolete references to Bazaar

2015-11-06T13:08:12+00:00

Prefer straight quoting in some text files

2015-09-11T18:05:12+00:00

Mostly this just changes ` to ' in static text.  Some exceptions:
* INSTALL.REPO: Use curved quotes, as the diagnostic in question
typically does that now.
* admin/quick-install-emacs (TRY, top level):
Use straight quoting in diagnostics.
* src/README: Fix working-directory confusion.

Generate a ChangeLog file from commit logs

(change-history-commit): New rules.
* admin/admin.el (make-manuals-dist--1):
Don't worry about doc/ChangeLog.

Reject attempts to commit files named 'ChangeLog'.
* lib/gnulib.mk, m4/gnulib-comp.m4: Regenerate.

Git transition patch

2014-11-11T18:28:05+00:00

All bzr revision IDS, and all CVS revision IDs for which a commit
could be identified, were changed to time-date!committer version
stamps. All .cvsignore files in the history became .gitignore files.
Fixes-bug annotations from bzr were copied into the corresponding
commit comments.

(The first .cvsignore commit was 1999-09-30T14:07:54Z!fx@gnu.org>.
The last CVS commit was <2009-12-27T08:11:12Z!cyd@stupidchicken.com>)

Committer/author email addresses are generally correct for the
transition day, not necessarily when the commit was originally made.
