+ * generated documentation moved out of source tarball entirely, in sisu-0.59
+ series sisu documentation as generated by sisu was introduced, (the debian
+ package made a separate sub-package of this), however: this made the
+ tarball much larger than it was previously (in the order of 5 times the
+ size, over 10Mb instead of under 2), and; this has very unattractive
+ implications for source control management / git, as much of the output is
+ in binary file format which as they include information on when they were
+ built and which version of sisu they were built with, have different hash
+ values from one generation to the next, which means large diffs and
+ repeated storing of binary files which may contain essentially the same
+ data, and rapid growth in size of the git repository. Solution sisu-0.60:
+ * keep the sisu source tarball to as little binary content as is necessary
+ by separating out the documents produced (this keeps diffs to essentials,
+ and both the tarball and repository smaller in size)
+ * keep a separate tarball for documentation as generated sisu-doc; offer
+ that as a package on its own, (request that debian consider it for
+ inclusion as such).
