* All arguments must now be given as options.
* Documented.
* chmod +x in Git.
* Do not distribute files whose contents should depend on what the
configure script found: config.h, config.log, config.status,
features.log, Makefile.config, contrib/conv/w3m2links.awk,
contrib/lua/hooks.lua, doc/man/man1/elinks.1.
* Do not distribute other files that configure will rebuild anyway:
src/intl/gettext/ref-add.sed, src/intl/gettext/ref-del.sed.
But do distribute contrib/elinks.spec, because it specifies how
to run configure, and only the @VERSION@ varies in it.
* Do not distribute the empty directory po/.deps.
* Save the commit ID into .git/HEAD in the tar file.
* Compress the *.tar.gz and *.tar.bz2 from the same *.tar file.
* Instead of *.tar.gz.md5 and *.tar.bz2.md5, generate a *.md5 file
that contains md5sums for *.tar, *.tar.gz, and *.tar.bz2.
* Use md5sum --binary for the sake of Windows.
This is the mkdist to which doc/release.txt refers.
The script was originally written by Pasky and then modified by Fonseca.
This version doesn't know the correct directory names and so won't work
without modifications, but it seems better to check it in now than wait.
