-   * Ignore setsid failures.
-   * Avoid leaving behind .tmp files when failing in some cases, including
-     importing files to a disk that is full.
-   * Avoid bad commits after interrupted direct mode sync (or merge).
-   * Fix build with wai 0.3.0.
-   * Deal with FAT's low resolution timestamps, which in combination with
-     Linux's caching of higher res timestamps while a FAT is mounted, caused
-     direct mode repositories on FAT to seem to have modified files after
-     they were unmounted and remounted.
-   * Windows: Fix opening webapp when repository is in a directory with
-     spaces in the path.
-   * Detect when Windows has lost its mind in a timezone change, and
-     automatically apply a delta to the timestamps it returns, to get back to
-     sane values."""]]
