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>)

Update from table version 0.2 (1999-03-30) to 1.0 (2011-07-12).
This doesn't change the table data, just copyright license notice.
The new notices are compatible with the GPL, the old ones were not.
