versioncontrol 5.x-1.1

5.x-1.1 is a relatively minor bugfix release as follow-up to the last week's large 5.x-1.0, usable as drop-in replacement for the latter. Though this is not the largest batch of fixes, I'm releasing 5.x-1.1 because I'm now branching off the 5.x-2.x branch and will only apply the most pressing fixes to the 5.x-1.x series. So this branch is mostly frozen from now on.

So, the list of improvements since 5.x-1.0:

• Make issue tracker links in commit messages actually work.
• Backports of some cvs.module fixes:
  • #71359: Fix overflowing commit messages.
  • #176747: regex in theme_cvs_commit_message() adds erroneous links.
  • #221295: respect the sitewide "Number of items per feed:" setting.
• RSS improvements:
  • Port of #212864: rss feed wrong date.
  • Made RSS feed generation more similar to the version in node.module, including an upgrade to RSS 2.0 and an author field for each feed item.
• New feature (exception to the "bugfix release" rule): The addition of two new API functions, versioncontrol_format_commit_identifier() and versioncontrol_format_item_revision(), which make it possible for VCS backends to specify abbreviated versions of the revision strings, i.e. for cutting an SHA-1 hash down to a reasonable length. Backends can achieve this by implementing [versioncontrol_backend]_get_short_revision_identifier(), and Commit Log automatically shows the short version for backends that implement this function.
• Plus lots of API documentation fixes and improvements.

So that's a solid stable release, supposed to stay usable for some time. And now, lean back and enjoy the 2.x release cycle, where everything will break again (and then will be reconstructed, too)!
