Subject: [glib] GVariant: fix introspection annotations
Date: Fri, 27 May 2011 19:57:00 +0000 (UTC)
commit e61fa51fd5acd6f448a2200e737b7bea033066f9
Author: Giovanni Campagna <gcampagna src gnome org>
Date:   Sun Apr 3 17:18:44 2011 +0200

    GVariant: fix introspection annotations
    
    Add transfer annotations for most functions, as well as some (array)
    and (skip) for functions that use varargs.
