commit 9c4a035b71c7648b006b91a52e86edb2baea5138
Author: Hans Ulrich Niedermann <hun@n-dimensional.de>
Date:   Sat Jul 26 10:36:31 2008 +0200

    New version tag syntax: "make tag VER=1.2"

commit fefebc702664a683ceeafa800b0fe75178d63037
Author: Hans Ulrich Niedermann <hun@n-dimensional.de>
Date:   Sat Jul 26 10:30:02 2008 +0200

    Switch to release tags including the package name

    This will reduce tag confusion when we fork into a
    different project.

    A tag like nbb-1.2 or foo-tools-1.2 is much more useful
    than v1.2.

    Make automake's "make" command depend on configure

commit 958e81655ad143dfd54b099637db60db42f77fb0
Author: Hans Ulrich Niedermann <hun@n-dimensional.de>
Date:   Thu Jul 24 15:00:33 2008 +0200

    Adjust testcases for absolute builddirs

    When configure is called as /path/to/configure instead of
    ../path/to/configure, the ".git/" test directories are reported
    by "git init" using absolute pathnames, not must ".git/".

    Fix some issues found by pylint/pychecker

    Includes real issues like wrong argument numbers and missing
    ancestor __init__() calls, whitespace and comment cleanups.

    Cannot "fix" everything because of a good amount of the warnings
    raised by pylint/pychecker are false alarms.
