+
+ Use git-version-gen for version names between releases.
+ * .cvsignore (.tarball-version, GNUmakefile, *~): Add.
+ * .gitignore (/.tarball-version, /GNUmakefile, /*~): Add.
+ * .prev-version: New.
+ * .version.in: Remove.
+ * ChangeLog: Remove the $Id$ previously used for capturing the CVS
+ revision.
+ * GNUmakefile: Remove, now copied from Gnulib.
+ * Makefile.am: Add code suggested by comments in
+ build-aux/git-version-gen.
+ (EXTRA_DIST): Remove GNUmakefile, handled by Gnulib. Add maint.mk,
+ .prev-version, and .version.
+ * NEWS (2.3b+): Rename to...
+ (?.?): ... this because we're dropping the "+" version naming scheme,
+ but, in general, we still can't be sure of our next release name.
+ * bootstrap: Add a quick hack to remove from .gitignore the
+ GNUmakefile entry that gnulib adds. We already have a /GNUmakefile
+ entry. This should really be fixed in gnulib instead.
+ * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add gnumakefile.
+ * configure.ac (AC_INIT): Set version name by invoking
+ build-aux/git-version-gen.
+ (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove .version, now generated by
+ build-aux/git-version-gen.
+ * maint.mk: New, copied from coreutils.
+ * doc/.cvsignore (bison.1): Add.
+ * doc/.gitignore (/bison.1): Add.
+ * doc/bison.1: Remove, generated.
+ * src/.cvsignore (revision.c): Remove.
+ * src/.gitignore (/revision.c): Remove.
+ * src/Makefile.am (bison_SOURCES): Remove revision.c and revision.h.
+ (BUILT_SOURCES): Remove revision.c.
+ (revision.c): Remove.
+ * src/getargs.c (version): Don't print revision after the VERSION.
+ * src/revision.h: Remove.

+
+ Fix untranslatable composition of sentences. Reported by Goran
+ Uddeborg at
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2008-06/msg00000.html>.
+ * THANKS (Goran Uddeborg): Add.
+ * src/reduce.c (reduce_print): Report the number of nonterminals and
+ rules useless in the grammar in separate sentences.
+ * tests/reduce.at (Useless Rules): Update output.
+ (Reduced Automaton): Likewise.
+ (Underivable Rules): Likewise.
+ (Empty Language): Likewise.
+
+2008-07-15 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ Fix some .gitignore and .cvsignore problems.
+ * bootstrap (insert_sorted_if_absent): Replace all uses with...
+ (insert_vc_ignore): ... this new function, which prepends `/' to all
+ .gitignore entries before passing them to insert_sorted_if_absent.
+ * bootstrap.conf (vc_ignore): Set to '.cvsignore .gitignore' so that
+ .cvsignore files are maintained even though Bison developers run
+ bootstrap while using Git.
+ * .cvsignore (*.patch *.log log patches applied): Remove, apparently
+ unneeded by Bison.
+ (gnulib): Add.
+ * .gitignore (/*.patch *.log log patches applied): Remove, broken and
+ unneeded. Reported by Eric Blake.
+ * lib/.gitignore (/*~): Add.
+ * po/.cvsignore, runtime-po/.cvsignore: Sync with .gitignore.
+ * examples/calc++/.gitignore (/calc++.exe): Add. Reported by Eric
+ Blake.
+ * src/.gitignore (/bison.exe): Add. Reported by Eric Blake.
+
+2008-07-15 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
+
+ Improve forward-compatibility with GNU M4. Reported by Eric Blake at
+ <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bison/2008-07/msg00000.html>.
+ * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add unsetenv.
+ * lib/.gitignore, lib/.cvsignore (/unsetenv.c): Add.
+ * m4/.gitignore, m4/.cvsignore (/environ.m4): Add.
+ (/setenv.m4): Add.
+ * src/output.c (output_skeleton): For the m4 invocation, pass -dV as
+ the first argument because it may become position-dependent, and unset
+ POSIXLY_CORRECT so Bison's skeletons have access to GNU M4 extensions.
+ Add comments explaining these issues in more detail.
+
+2008-07-14 Joel E. Denny <jdenny@ces.clemson.edu>
