  * CONTRIBUTING:
    - added a new file to describe how to contribute to ecryptfs
  * === added directory img/old, img/old/ecryptfs_14.png,
    img/old/ecryptfs_192.png, img/old/ecryptfs_64.png:
    - saving the old logos/branding for posterity
  * debian/copyright, img/COPYING:
    - added CC-by-SA 3.0 license
    - use the text version
  * img/ecryptfs_14.png, img/ecryptfs_192.png, img/ecryptfs_64.png:
    - added scaled copies of images used for Launchpad.net branding
  * src/utils/ecryptfs-recover-private: LP: #847505
    - add an option to allow user to enter the mount passphrase,
      in case they've recorded that, but forgotten their login
      passphrase
  * src/libecryptfs/sysfs.c: LP: #802197
    - default sysfs to /sys, if not found in /etc/mtab
    - it seems that reading /etc/mtab for this is outdated
    - ensure that ecryptfs works even if there is no sysfs entry
      in /etc/mtab

      the libecryptfs function that adds passphrase-based keys to the
      kernel keyring
  * tests/kernel/tests.rc, tests/userspace/tests.rc:
    - created a test case category files for test harnesses to source

    - created new test case template to copy from
  * tests/userspace/verify-passphrase-sig.sh,
    tests/userspace/verify-passphrase-sig/test.c:
    - created test case, for make check, to test the creation of
      passphrase-based fekeks and signatures
  * configure.ac, Makefile.am, tests/Makefile.am, tests/lib/Makefile.am,
