134 * Moved to a git repository.
135 * vidir: Applied patch from Stefan Fritsch (one part of #412176):
136 - Check for control characters (especially newlines) in filenames
137 and error out, since this can greatly confuse the editor or vidir.
138 - If the source of a rename does not exist (and thus the rename will fail
139 anyway), vidir should not move an existing target file to a tmpfile.
140 - If a directory is renamed, vidir should take that into account when
141 renaming files in this directory.
142 - If a directory name is passed as name/ to vidir, vidir should not
143 add second slash after the name.
144 * vidir: Add support for unlinking directories. To recursivly delete
145 a directory and its contents, pipe find to vidir, and delete the directory
146 and its contents in the editor. Closes: #412176
147 * Add example to man page about recursive modification of directories.

250 treat this the same as removing the whole line, and delete the file,
251 instead of trying to rename the file to "".
252 * vidir: Remove the periods after the item numbers.
253 * vidir: Man page improvements. Closes: #378122
254 * combine: Man page improvements, to clarify even more that order does
255 matter and that the operations are not commutative. Closes: #361123
256 * combine: The behavior of "or" was fairly strange if lines were repeated in
257 a file. Changed behavior to just print all lines from both files, even
258 if this means printing dups. Not sure I like this behavior either, but
259 it's consistent with the very useful behaviors of "and" and "not".
260 * vidir, vipe: Use /usr/bin/editor if it's present, and EDITOR and VISUAL
