| * Git transition patchEric S. Raymond2014-11-113-1343/+1028
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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) Committer/author email addresses are generally correct for the transition day, not necessarily when the commit was originally made.

* | Rename the 'bzr' notes file to 'repo'. For two reasons:Eric S. Raymond2014-10-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 1. A significant portion of the advice is independent of any specific version-control sytem. 2. Doing the rename now means it is easier to compose a multi-file patch that can be applied to fix the tree on the day of the git move.
