ostree v2014.12



"Wait, what happened between v2014.8 and 12"?  Well...I had pressure to get a release out that had GRUB2 
support, and it was rushed and awkward.  Testing suffered because it was targeted for a patched Fedora 
Anaconda.  Some intermediate releases followed, but weren't quite worthy to mention.

Anyways now that work continues, so here's v2014.12:

https://git.gnome.org/browse/ostree/tag/?id=v2014.12

There's a number of cleanups of things like command line arguments, various GRUB2 fixes (again mainly for 
Fedora), a rework of the pull code in preparation for picking up the static deltas: 
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=721799

Worth highlighting here as well is James' work that taught OSTree to understands the concept of "version" as 
a metadata key on commits, and "ostree admin status" how to show it.  See also this commit to Continuous to 
generate it:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-continuous/commit/?id=7e6258827887aed5352d8773e3a782dbe8ee685d

Also, this release *finally* makes it easy to recursively mirror an OSTree repository.  The client side was 
oriented for "depth=1", but now you can do:

ostree --repo=repo pull --depth=-1 --mirror someremote someos/x86_64/buildmaster

To create a copy of someos/x86_64/buildmaster locally.
