;;; Commentary:

;; Major mode to browse revision log histories.
;; Currently supports the format output by:
;;  RCS, SCCS, CVS, Subversion, and DaRCS.

;; Examples of log output:

;;;; RCS/CVS:

;; ----------------------------
;; revision 1.35	locked by: turlutut
;; date: 2005-03-22 18:48:38 +0000;  author: monnier;  state: Exp;  lines: +6 -8
;; (gnus-display-time-event-handler):
;; Check display-time-timer at runtime rather than only at load time
;; in case display-time-mode is turned off in the mean time.
;; ----------------------------
;; revision 1.34
;; date: 2005-02-09 15:50:38 +0000;  author: kfstorm;  state: Exp;  lines: +7 -7
;; branches:  1.34.2;
;; Change release version from 21.4 to 22.1 throughout.
;; Change development version from 21.3.50 to 22.0.50.

;;;; SCCS:

;;;; Subversion:

;; ------------------------------------------------------------------------
;; r4622 | ckuethe | 2007-12-23 18:18:01 -0500 (Sun, 23 Dec 2007) | 2 lines
;;
;; uBlox AEK-4T in binary mode. Added to unstable because it breaks gpsfake
;;
;; ------------------------------------------------------------------------
;; r4621 | ckuethe | 2007-12-23 16:48:11 -0500 (Sun, 23 Dec 2007) | 3 lines
;;
;; Add a note about requiring usbfs to use the garmin gps18 (usb)
;; Mention firmware testing the AC12 with firmware BQ00 and BQ04
;;
;; ------------------------------------------------------------------------
;; r4620 | ckuethe | 2007-12-23 15:52:34 -0500 (Sun, 23 Dec 2007) | 1 line
;;
;; add link to latest hardware reference
;; ------------------------------------------------------------------------
;; r4619 | ckuethe | 2007-12-23 14:37:31 -0500 (Sun, 23 Dec 2007) | 1 line
;;
;; there is now a regression test for AC12 without raw data output

;;;; Darcs:

;; Changes to darcsum.el:
;;
;; Mon Nov 28 15:19:38 GMT 2005  Dave Love <fx@gnu.org>
;;   * Abstract process startup into darcsum-start-process.  Use TERM=dumb.
;;   TERM=dumb avoids escape characters, at least, for any old darcs that
;;   doesn't understand DARCS_DONT_COLOR & al.
;;
;; Thu Nov 24 15:20:45 GMT 2005  Dave Love <fx@gnu.org>
;;   * darcsum-mode-related changes.
;;   Don't call font-lock-mode (unnecessary) or use-local-map (redundant).
;;   Use mode-class 'special.  Add :group.
;;   Add trailing-whitespace option to mode hook and fix
;;   darcsum-display-changeset not to use trailing whitespace.

;;; Todo:

;; - add ability to modify a log-entry (via cvs-mode-admin ;-)
;; - remove references to cvs-*
;; - make it easier to add support for new backends without changing the code.
