 # XXX:	The man page only exists in the upstream docs branch. Unfortunately
 #	there is no clean way to extract just one file from a different
 #	upstream branch. Therefore we include it in files. To discover
 #	which version of the git-filter-repo.1 file in the docs branch
 #	corresponds with the extracted tag,
 #
 #	- git clone https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo.git
 #	- git log, looking for the current tag's hash.
 #	- git switch docs
 #	- git log and look for the matching hash in the commit log.
 #	- git checkout HASH
 #	- copy the file to the files subdirectory of this port
 #
 #	Until a better approach can be discovered.
