   <date> <perpetrator> -files/somefile-r1:
   Remove files/somefile-r1.

PS: I am coming back from a busy extended weekend at work, people have
been filing lots of bug reports (there's a wranglers' queue of more than
a hundred now, most of which haven't been touched in days), version
bumps, stabilisation requests for HPPA, a missing Gentoo developer to
seek out and see if he's still OK, a private life to update if I still
have one, and instead I get to answer this ridiculous nit picking crowd
over yet another technical detail in this QA debacle? Nice.
