+       git-version-gen: convert leading TABs to spaces
+       * build-aux/git-version-gen: Expand leading TABs.
+
+       git-version-gen: handle failed "git rev-list"
+       * build-aux/git-version-gen: Rather than leaking a "fatal" error
+       from git and proceeding as if it had succeeded but printed no SHA1
+       checksums, suppress the diagnostic and handle the failure.
+       Reported by Bruce Korb in http://marc.info/?l=git&m=129399145930450&w=2
+
+       git-version-gen: include command name in one more diagnostic
+       * build-aux/git-version-gen: When the required .tarball-version file
+       was missing or unreadable, you might see the diagnostic from "cat",
+       but no trace of the name of the invoking script.  Now, you still see
+       the diagnostic from cat, but also get one from "git-version-gen: ".
+       Inspired by a patch from Bruce Korb.

        update-copyright: adjust test to match changed code
        * tests/test-update-copyright.sh: Change test's expected output
        to match new actual output.
