5172fa02cc Prefer HTTPS to HTTP for gnu.org
This fixes some URLs I omitted from my previous pass,
notably those in lists.gnu.org.  Although lists.gnu.org
does not yet support TLS 1.1, TLS 1.0 is better than nothing.
* lisp/erc/erc.el (erc-official-location):
* lisp/mail/emacsbug.el (report-emacs-bug):
Use https:, not http:.

818f06eaa7 Prefer straight quoting in some text files
Mostly this just changes ` to ' in static text.  Some exceptions:
* INSTALL.REPO: Use curved quotes, as the diagnostic in question
typically does that now.
* admin/quick-install-emacs (TRY, top level):
Use straight quoting in diagnostics.
* src/README: Fix working-directory confusion.

ac03795dc4 Git transition patch
All bzr revision IDS, and all CVS revision IDs for which a commit
could be identified, were changed to time-date!committer version
stamps. All .cvsignore files in the history became .gitignore files.
Fixes-bug annotations from bzr were copied into the corresponding
commit comments.

(The first .cvsignore commit was 1999-09-30T14:07:54Z!fx@gnu.org>.
The last CVS commit was <2009-12-27T08:11:12Z!cyd@stupidchicken.com>)

Committer/author email addresses are generally correct for the
transition day, not necessarily when the commit was originally made.

 messages so that they are in line with Emacs development practices
 and style guidance.

1ad9ad3bfe Backport from trunk more changes in preparation for git migration.
admin/notes/bzr: Renamed to notes/repo, reorganixed to separate
 VCS-dependent from VCS-independent stuff.  Added guidance about
 commit-comment format under DVCSes.
 admin/notes/BRANCH: Merged into notes/repo.

 lisp/version.el: Fix some fallback values to conform to the actual
 release number.

 about the repository type.

a9f1618de8 Spelling fixes; tweak explanation of commit messages.
* admin/notes/repo: Avoid "DVCS" acronym without first explaining it.
Mention using the first line of a ChangeLog as the topic line, and
that commit messages should use UTF-8.
* lisp/mouse.el (mouse-drag-line): Fix misspelling of "right-fringe".

fb85c184db Merge BRANCH into repo, because it belongs with the developer advice. Also...
...this helps prepare for the repository move.

5070ebb0c2 Rename the 'bzr' notes file to 'repo'. For two reasons:
1. A significant portion of the advice is independent of any 
specific version-control sytem.

2. Doing the rename now means it is easier to compose a multi-file 
patch that can be applied to fix the tree on the day of the git move.
