Fixes since v1.7.0 ------------------ All of the fixes in v1.7.0.X maintenance series are included in this release, unless otherwise noted. * "git add frotz/nitfol" did not complain when the entire frotz/ directory was ignored. * "git rev-list --pretty=oneline" didn't terminate a record with LF for commits without any message. * "git rev-list --abbrev-commit" defaulted to 40-byte abbreviations, unlike newer tools in the git toolset.
