SPDX License List is a list of (common) open source
licenses that can be referred to by a “short identifier”.
It has several advantages compared to the common "license header texts"
usually found in source files.
Some of the advantages:
* It is precise; there is no ambiguity due to variations in license header
text
* It is language neutral
* It is easy to machine process
* It is concise
* It is simple and can be used without much cost in interpreted
environments like java Script, etc.
* An SPDX license identifier is immutable.
* It provides simple guidance for developers who want to make sure the
license for their code is respected

Fedora switched to 'xz' compress kernel modules, and recently
[RHEL7 did too](https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1367496).
This compression defeats bsdiff.
While we have a "rollsum-able" test, we don't have a "bsdiff-able" test as it'd
be very expensive (we'd have to bsdiff, then apply it and compare the result).
Let's do the tactical quick fix here and just not try to delta files ending in
`.xz.`. This avoids us using bsdiff pointlessly for over 4000 files, which is
quite a notable speed increase for generating deltas.

We added a `.dir-locals.el` in commit: 9a77017d87
There's no need to have it per-file, with that people might think
to add other editors, which is the wrong direction.

Improve the heuristic to use only the part before the first '.' when
looking for a similar file in the current directory.
last versions of dracut generate reproducible initramfs files, but we
still fallback to the full file download if there is any minimal
change that causes a different checksum and file name.
This change extends that case to deal better with similar files that
have a different suffix.
This is the difference generating a static delta from
fedora-atomic/f24/x86_64/docker-host to fedora-atomic/f24/x86_64/testing/docker-host

_ostree_delta_compute_similar_objects should not output symlinks.
Previously, a symlink in the "from" commit could be matched to a
real file in the "to" commit, since nothing was filtering symlinks
on the "from" side. This led to failures running the bzdiff
algorithm.
The previous diff algorithm was file tree based, and only looked
at modified files that lived at the same path.
However, components like the Linux kernel have versioned
subdirectories, e.g. /usr/lib/modules/$kver/.../ext4.ko. We want to
be able to detect these "modified renames" so that we can compute
diffs (rollsum, bsdiff).
